This is one of the oldest operating Wool/Corn Mill in South Africa, now a national monument situated on the banks of the Bathurst River. The mill was named after Samuel Bradshaw, one of the British settler who built the mill in 1821 with the intention to manufacture of blankets and kersey cloth. However in 1835 the mill was burnt down and later rebuilt and used as a grain mill. In 1964, it was bought by the Simon van der Stel Foundation, who restored it in 1981 and to date it is a national monument. Closed Wednesdays and rainy days. (Jul-15).
