Old and new - the waterwheel got supplanted in the early 1860s by newer technology, turbines. The turbines were located in purpose built addition to the mill, the turbine shed. The slits in the stone wall that used to be the west wall of the mill and is now an inner wall between the mill and the turbine shed, are for belts from the two turbines to supply power into the mill.
