Mills of bucket facing in the south-occidental of Sierra Espuña. The system of the Rambla de los Molinos in Aledo and Totana
Abstract
The water is the element that explains physical and human aspects in the geograñc space. This work analizes and describes its key role as source of energy for a first industrial activity as the grinding is, conditioning its localization. It is set up a system for using the flows in the Rambla de los Molinos, perfectly integrated in the space, to take full advantage of them. Although the activity of the mills has fallen, the system is still alive.
