Geocache Description:

Cache Information
Fantastic area. Very well hidden. Cannot get next to the cache via car. Some walking required. Drive down the road as far as possible and then continue on foot.

Hyndford Mill
Disused derelict water mill site woned by Mr Jim Orr, Charleston Parks Farm, Lanark. I was introduced to this location during one of South Lanarkshires open days. Members of the Clydesdale Mill Society were there and they gave me a fantastic tour of the building. Before the society started digging just the tip of the mill was visible above the land. The first record of the Mill existing is a mention on a map from 1596. The Clydesdale Mills Society are doing a fantastic job restoring this mill. The mill was water powered and used for grain milling, lint production, and bone milling. Knife handles were also made on site.
