Preston Mill, 18th century watermill in East Linton, Scotland.
The watermill features a conical red-tiled roof atop stone buildings, with a wooden water wheel connected to internal grinding mechanisms powered by River Tyne.
The mill operated continuously from the 1500s until 1959, processing oats and barley for local communities as East Lothian's final commercial water-powered grinding facility.
The National Trust for Scotland maintains this mill as a museum, offering tours that demonstrate traditional grain processing methods used by Scottish agricultural communities.
Visitors can access guided tours from April through October on Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday between 10:30 and 17:00.
The television series Outlander filmed scenes at Preston Mill, featuring the water wheel and millpond in multiple episodes during its first season.
