After spending the summer volunteering at The Mills Archive, I have now completed my project regarding the role of women in the milling industry. The pages are now available as part of the new Themes section on this site - see http://www.millsarchivetrust.org/index.php/themes/

I have produced a series of web pages from my research, which I hope will be a useful and interesting addition to The Mills Archive website.  Researching the role of women in the milling industry has been an interesting and rewarding pursuit, which I have greatly enjoyed.  I hope you enjoy looking at the web pages, and I would welcome any further comments.  

The main sections are:

• Milling: background social history
• Where do women fit in?
• The role of women in the milling industry
• How were women directly involved in the milling industry?
• How were women indirectly involved in the milling industry?
• The destiny of the small local miller
• The twentieth century and today
• Conclusion
• Author
