EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph presents a close-up view of a Corn Rubber, or Saddle Quern, situated in the picturesque County Antrim region of Northern Ireland. Dating back to the early 1900s, this antique grinding tool offers a glimpse into the rural past of this enchanting area. The Corn Rubber, also known as a Saddle Quern, is a traditional type of quern used for grinding corn or grains. Its unique design features a flat, circular stone with a saddle-like depression in the middle, which holds a smaller grinding stone. The quern's name derives from the fact that the saddle-like depression resembles the back of a saddle, providing a comfortable and stable surface for the user to operate the quern. The Corn Rubber's simplicity and functionality were essential for rural communities in County Antrim and other parts of Ireland, where access to modern milling equipment was limited. The use of these querns allowed families to grind their own corn and grains into flour for baking bread and other staple foods. This photograph captures the timeless beauty and historical significance of the Corn Rubber, showcasing the intricate details of its design and the textures of the natural stones. The image also evokes a sense of nostalgia and connection to the rich agricultural heritage of County Antrim and Northern Ireland as a whole.
