Can you guess where in Dorset this old picture was taken? Picture: Andy Hutchings Collection
Can you guess where this old picture of this Grade II listed building was taken?
It's probably one of the oldest buildings we've featured in this section as it's actually listed in the Domesday Book of 1086!
And it harks back to the industrial importance of the past of the Dorset village it's in.
The building, which is next to the River Frome, was used as a corn mill until the late 1930s since when it has been used for the manufacture of carpets and recently for an engineering business.
If you guessed that this picture is of the Mill at Maiden Newton then well done! You do know the area well!
Here's a picture of how Maiden Newton Mill looks in more recent times.
