Imagine trying to walk the precarious planks on the top of the Chaffeys Lock grist mill flume as water spews from every crack and crevice! This picture, taken in 1899 looking South towards Kingston, captures the mill, built by John Chaffey in 1872, which appears to be in a state of disrepair, perhaps vulnerable to the cascading water that for 27 years was its lifeline. Are the poles leaning against the walls straining to keep it upright? Will the flume succumb to the water pressure and break away? What do you think?
