Talk by Geoff Wallis (Millwright and Consultant)
Is mill conservation sustainable?
• Ecological – use of energy/materials, energy-intensive
restoration, management of waste, etc
• Availability of resources to keep mills in good order:
traditional expertise/materials, cash, etc.
• Do people want mills anyway?
