My BOTW is a Faller water mill with pump. You can put about a 1/2-inch of water in the base of the mill and the pump will push the water up to the flume and over the wheel.

This automated building kit by Faller is one I haven't seen in many years. The kit with open shed and saw table, made by Faller and sold by Atlas, is the more common one. It was posted last week, and is the one I have. This building as it stands alone would be a good grain mill, and a more common farming community building.
Thanks for posting the photo Thomas, it brings back memories.

My pleasure Frank. These are buildings that were on my dad's Marklin layout in the 1960s when I was just a wee kid. My dad's latest layout is basically just tracks on plywood and he has no more space for them, so he gave them to me. I have already carved out some spots on my layout for them.
