Mrs. Glenn Huether, Members from the Auburn and Dungannon Branches of the Woreell's Institute and ladies lrom the Community Joined the Tiger Dunlop W.I. for the October meeting when Peter Ivey of London who has purchased the Gled hill Woollen Mill and the Pfrimmer Feed Mill at Ben- miller discussed his undertaking. He said he would try to give an outline of his plans and his dreams for the two buildings. Mr. Ivey first came to Ben- miller 45 years ago as a young lad with his mother to buy blan- kets at the Mill, and then he came back again a few years ago and saw a "For Sale" •sign in, front of the Woollen Mill, so with his sister Joanne as a partner lie bought the building and later also purchased ,pfrimmer Feed Mill. Their dream was to renovate the Woollen Mill PO make it into a CountrY Hotel, a Place like an English old Cbuntry Hotel, where a person can go for a weekend and get away from it all. He said the 90 year old building, is in very good shape, and renovation is quite easy. The old barn board construc- tion will be kept to mix with the country setting. The main floor will have a lounge and a dining room, and about 12 bed- rooms on the upper floor each with its own bathroom. Mr. Ivey stated that the place will not be a public place but member- ship will be available. To, make the place a big Convention Hall was never his idea. The Pond he said will be stocked and private fishing will be allowed. As for the PfriMeler Mill, there are many things that can be preserved there, es- pecially the big turbine, he said. He plans someday in generating his own power and heat both buildings electrically. He also plans on making living quarters for the staff needed for the operation. Maybe a Craft room will be added especially Textile Craft and he says it is not too feas- able but perhaps someday there may be a Benmiller blanket pro- duced again, providing he can find someone to operate the looms. Mr. Ivey said he was grateful for the opportunity to share his ideas with the group and said he was ready to answer any ques- tions put to him. The first questioner asked if he would remove the high fence around his property. Mr.Ivey said no, but that he would lower it, as it does look a bit like a concentration camp." "When will he have open house?" About May 1973 is expected and he assured the ladies that they would be invited to tour the building, as a group, as soon as it is safe to have visitors. Remember!
