Daniel's Mill, Eardington - drive gears

The large spur gear is carried by the main wheel shaft and drives the small gear that is on the layshaft driving the stones. The layshaft therefore turns considerably faster than the wheel. The wheel is 38' 10" according to the owner's son and can be operated breastshot or pitch back.
