Plenty of photos On Flickr - someone will definitely be willing to release something (nothing currently under the right license). Richard001 (talk) 10:46, 8 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
I looked through those at the time I wrote the article. Nothing jumped out at me as having great encyclopedic value. A photo of the mill in operation would be nice (and most such photos would be out of copyright), and a photo which somehow represented the modern community, eg of a nicely restored building as we have at Paparoa. I've also looked on the Alexander Turnbull Library site and not found anything suitable.-gadfium 21:29, 8 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
