Description:Colour-tinted postcard of view of the Town Mill and mill pond in Stafford. The mill at this time was occupied by J. Brookfield and Son, who produced animal feed. The mill was built by George Brewster in 1834, on the site of the medieval town mill. It was powered by two wheels, fed from the mill pool by a culvert running under the road. The mill was demolished in 1957 and the land became part of Victoria Park; the mill wheels are still preserved where they stood. A postcard published by Stewart & Woolf, London. Postmarked 26 August 1904.
