Summary

[General description] This view shows a white mill silhouetted against the sky and standing in a clearing with a few trees and scrub in the background. The mill, on Windmill Hill, Mt. Barker Road was built by F.R. Nixon in 1842 but changed hands soon after. Milling ceased in 1864 and in 1890 the sails were burned in a bushfire.
