Premier Roller Flour bag stencil

Locally milled

In the early 1900s there were several flour mills in Kellerberrin. With easy access to local wheat and grains it is easy to see why Kellerberrin was an ideal location. By the 1960s most of the mills had been decommissioned. The railway meant it was easier and cheaper to transport wheat to larger centrally based mills. This flour bag stencil, from the Premier Roller Flour Kellerberrin, is one of the few items which remain from Kellerberrin flour mills' history.
