Dommett Plantation Mill - a photo on Flickriver

I initially went out to photograph sunrise but I really do love old structures and the Dummett Plantation Mill definitely falls into that category. I wish it wasn't behind a fence so I could explore it even more. As it was, in order to get the photograph I wanted, I had to remove the lens from my camera, slide it through a crack in the gate, put it back together and then take the photo.
In it's heyday, The Dummett Plantation grew roughly 2,000 acres of sugarcane to be distilled into rum. It was built in 1825 and was where the first steam-powered cane crushing mill was put into operation thus helping to bring the Industrial Revolution to the growing United States.
Unfortunately, not much is left of the plantation. It was burned to the ground during the second Seminole War (www.britannica.com/event/Second-Seminole-War)
They say the site is haunted by active spirits but unfortunately, I was not privileged to experience any of that.
