Connor's Mill is a historical steam-driven flour mill situated on Stirling Terrace in Toodyay, Western Australia. This operational mill is a significant part of the town's heritage and offers a glimpse into the past. Visitors can explore the mill and learn about its history and the role it played in the development of the town.
Preservation and Operation of the Mill
The mill is still in operation today, thanks to the efforts of the Shire of Toodyay. In 1975, they protected the then dilapidated building and established the Toodyay Tourist Centre. This initiative has helped preserve the mill's historical significance and made it accessible for visitors to explore and learn about its past.
Restoration and Establishment of the Toodyay Tourist Centre
In 1975, following a restoration project, the Shire of Toodyay established the Toodyay Tourist Centre in the mill building. The restoration included the construction of a staircase to the upper floors, allowing visitors to explore the mill in its entirety and gain a comprehensive understanding of its workings.
