Goodbye Phoenix Roller Mills



The roller mill that is believed to have been housed at Phoenix Roller Mills in Grahamstown since 1907 was moved out of the premises on Wednesday 14 July 2010. The machinery was trucked up to the Sandstone Heritage Trust in Ficksburg in the eastern Free State. This video shows the extraction by crane of the main engine and includes brief snippets of trivia and history from various sources.
