General Description : | Mills have helped shape the course of our country’s social and economic development for more than two hundred years. Before grain milling technologies were developed and introduced, people had no choice but to endure the labour-intensive and time-consuming process of hand grinding. Watson’s Mill, Manotick, Otario. Celebrating its 150th anniversary in 2010, Watson’s Mill is a unique 19th century grist and flour mill located in Manotick, on the shores of the Rideau River, a UNESCO designated World Heritage Site. It is the only industrial heritage site in the City of Ottawa and has a remarkable history linked to local politics, the building of a country, and a tragic love story. The PERMANENT™ stamp, identified with the letter P in place of a value, is always accepted at the current domestic postage price. So if you buy a PERMANENT stamp today, you can still use it in at any time in the future. Booklet of 10 stamps. |
