Department 56 Dickens Village Blythe Pond Mill House 6508-0 Very Good w/Box

A working English watermill for your Dickens' Village. Department 56's Blythe Pond Mill House pairs a tall half-timbered mill house — dated 1786 over the double doors, under a steep red tile roof with snow along the ridge — with a stone mill wing and a big wooden waterwheel. A green Christmas wreath hangs beside the doors, sacks wait by the mill door, and two millstones lean against the end wall. The underside is molded "By the Pond," Dickens Series 1986. One of the earliest Dickens' Village buildings: introduced in December 1986 and retired in December 1990.

Condition: Very good vintage condition. The piece is clean and bright with no damage noted. It comes with a new replacement LED lighting cord that works, and the original retail box, which shows age-related storage wear.
