About this postcard

The old mill wheel at Cascade, in Poultney, Vermont, stands beside a stone foundation, with vegetation crowding the site and a fence post in the foreground. Water-powered wheels like this once drove small gristmills, sawmills, and machine shops in Vermont river villages, before centralized electric power became common.
