A Glimpse into the Past: Dressing a Millstone at Ewell, Surrey - A Testament to Ancient Craftsmanship and Industry This evocative photograph, captured in the early 1930s, offers a rare glimpse into the past, as a specialist craftsman meticulously dresses a millstone at an ancient water mill in Ewell, Surrey. The mill, nestled amidst the picturesque English countryside, stands as a testament to the rich history and industrial prowess of a bygone era. The millstone, a large, circular grindstone used in grinding grain or other materials, is being carefully dressed to ensure its smooth surface is free of imperfections. Dressing involves the laborious process of removing small stones and debris from the millstone's surface using hammers and chisels. This painstaking technique ensures the millstone's continued effectiveness and longevity. The mill, with its cogged wheel and wooden machinery, exudes an air of antiquity and tradition. The water wheel, turning gently in the background, powers the mill's mechanisms, underscoring the symbiotic relationship between water and the mill's operation. This photograph not only showcases the intricacies of millstone dressing but also highlights the importance of the milling industry in Surrey's history. The mill, with its circular shape and thatched roof, stands as a proud reminder of the region's industrial heritage and the craftsmanship that once thrived in this picturesque corner of England. As we admire this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the skill, patience, and dedication required to maintain these ancient structures and the traditions they represent.
