Some pictures i finally had time to download from the millyard museum enjoy! [Mill loom room] [museum display] [hand tub pump] [Mill building] [Millyard museum building] [End width of typical mill building] [Mill details]

The picture in the lobby of the Millyard museum showing the loom room from one of the mills

The steam pumper is an Amoskeag built in the late 1860's This was saved from the scrapper in the early nineties and purchased for the sum of 100.00.This is on loan from the Ashland ,Mass fire department

The hand drawn hand pumper and hose reel dates from 1854 this hand tub won a muster competition with a stream of 150'

The last few are typical of the many mills still standing in Manchester N.H. most are dating from the 1860's to the 1880's UNH is using one for classes. The others are varied uses.
