The picture-postcard Perth Old Mill is the city's oldest industrial colonial remnant, and a popular landmark.
The classic whitewashed windmill was built in 1835, launching the colony's wind-powered flour milling industry.
The mill fell into disuse after 1859, and was used for various purposes over the decades, from a dance hall to a chicken run.
Now restored, today the Old Mill is managed by the National Trust and houses interesting colonial artifacts.

Always love these tours on a first visit... lets you see whats around and helps you get your bearings, and if something looks interesting, you can hop off, and continue the tour later on another bus!
