Melin Tregwynt is a woollen mill in the hamlet of Tregwynt in the parish of Granston, Pembrokeshire, Wales. A mill has stood on this site since 1819 taking fleeces from the sheep farms of the area, carding and spinning them into woollen yarn and then weaving the yarn into cloth and blankets. The local farmers would sell their fleeces to the mill, which would wash, card, comb and spin the wool into yarn and then weave it into blankets. The mill was powered by water from the local stream. In an unusual design, the water wheel is inside the building. The large iron overshot wheel probably dates to the later part of the 19th century. The water wheel drove hammers that beat the woven cloth to clean and soften it. Later the water wheel drove leather belts that powered the carding engines and looms. This equipment has been preserved in the old section of the mill. https://www.barnowlbothy.com/Store/#!/Mini-Hot-Water-Bottles/p/148581318 https://www.barnowlbothy.com/Store/#!/Welsh-Melin-Tregwynt-Tapestry-Hot-Water-Bottles/p/170432797 #scottishmills #hotwaterbottle #chillday #melintregwynt #welshblanketaddict #cosy #warm #tweedhotwaterbottles #hotbot https://www.instagram.com/p/CF7AlvGgvqH/?igshid=asvmur84d24h
