Overlooking the banks of the Vascão stream, 4 km from S. Bartolomeu da Via Glória, and with origins dating back to the nineth century, the Alferes mill presents an unusual set of three grinding lines, adjustments due to seasonal change in the extent and volume of water of the river. In the surroundings, it's found the house miller, stone stables, the valley and the oven where bread was baked.
