Since this is part building, part accessory, didn't know where it might go. But putting it under BOTW for now. Anyway, visited an antique show and picked this up March 3rd, my birthday, for $17. Thought it was neat, no name on it that I see. Seems to be a working water wheel, will try it out today possibly.



Looks like it will be a fun accessory, er, building.

And did it work? Really cool piece. I'd like to see where you planted it and how it gets water. Never ever seen one before. Age of manufacture?

Jerry - what a GREAT find! The building and water wheel themselves are cool enough, but with molded hillside attached that you could work into your landscape....
