Sightseeing Saturday: Barry Mill is one of only a handful of mills remaining powered by water. Rebuilt after a fire around 1814, it is probably the largest and finest example of its type still in operation. The mill was once the beating heart of a rural community, supplying food and providing a place for trade and gossip. 

The water-powered mill produced oatmeal and other foods, as well as providing work for local people, for almost 800 years right up until 1982. Step inside the mill and discover how engineering ingenuity provided a means to save the ‘daily grind’ of producing your own flour and meal. These ideas gave birth to the machinery of the industrial revolution. 

Learn how trade shifted from a bartering system to monetary exchange. See the different types of food that people have lived on over the centuries, and watch the wheel turn and machinery move. Don't miss the special milling tours on Fridays! Find out more at https://visitangus.com/things-to-see-do/attractions/barry-mill/.

Friday's Fascinating Fact: Born in Arbroath in 1854, David Dunbar Buick was a pioneer of the American motor industry, and his legacy continues to this day. Buick displayed an affinity as an inventor from an early age, developing a lawn sprinkler and a process to enamel cast iron bathtubs. 

In 1902, Buick founded the Buick Manufacturing Company with the aim of producing cars and engines which he could sell to other vehicle manufacturers. Unfortunately the business failed within a year, but in 1903 Buick was back and founded the Buick Motor Company as it is known now. 

Today, the Buick is known as a luxury motor brand and is the oldest surviving make in the American automotive industry.
