Brick Mill floral its platform empty and windowsThe four storey mill at Mill Pond Farm rises from open grassland near Braidwood, its locally manufactured brick walls sitting on a granite ground floor beneath a rust mottled gabled roof. Built in 1859 by Charles Dransfield to serve a goldfield settlement of more than 1,000 miners on Jembaicumbene Creek, it remains the most substantial building to survive from the district's gold rush era. Part of the Mill Pond Farm series.
