Melin Bompren - St Fagans Museum - Wales. - Working Water Wheels on Waymarking.com

The water mill was dismantled and moved stone by stone from Cross Inn to its new location in St Fagans, the Museum of Welsh Life, now known as the National History Museum of Wales.

"The Melin Bompren Corn Mill is typical of a Cardiganshire water-driven mill, built to convert corn into flour. Driven by a complex waterwheel, which you can see in motion, you can watch the process as the grain is transferred through different sections of the mill and into the final product. You can then buy a bag of flour if you wish."
