Owned by John Danby, a Wilmington, Delaware, banker, the mill and dam were built in 1919 by the Fitz Water Wheel Company before a commercial supply of electricity was available in Chester County. The technology was simple: water flowed from the dam through a race to the wheel which was connected to a generator. The resulting electricity powered lights for the property’s house and barn. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis historically significant mill can be a showpiece on your layout! It even has all the roof supports and is fairly close to the real building, thanks to Carolyn Wood, who supplied the architectural drawings from when the real structure was restored.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit features laser-cut wood, real cedar shingles, rock paper and Tichy details.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Conowingo Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43407198388314,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/6889\/5578\/files\/20220424_113456a.jpg?v=1779494043","url":"https:\/\/conowingomodels.com\/products\/pennsbury-hydroelectric-mill-in-ho-scale","provider":"Conowingo Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
