Horseshoe Door at Loveland Feed & Grain Mill Ruth Soller - Blog
This old and worn door was the main entry from the west side loading dock of the historic 1891 Loveland Feed & Grain Mill. You can see the passage of time as you observe the layers of renovations to the original red brick building. At one time the building was painted a light blue and the doors were a cadette grey-blue. A later coat of white paint covered exterior and interior walls; then this paint has worn through to reveal under layers. I replaced the outline of a standard quarter horse shoe with a large draft horse shoe; because I have seen early photos of draft horses pulling wagonloads of feed from this busy mill in the early 1900's. What memories does this bring to your mind?
