Scope and Content Former water-powered corn mill, Ardheslaig, Applecross This was a very small corn mill, without a kiln, driven by an overshot wheel about 0.66 by 3.7m, of which the axle only survived in 1976. It was masonry built, with a corrugated iron roof, and was used as a store. This view shows the mill from the north, with the remains of the wheel and the stream which drove it. on the right. The very small size of the mill is obvious. Such tiny mills, of which there were a number in the north-west highlands, can only have served very small communities.
