A watercolour study made after this drawing is currently held in the collection of the victoria and albert museum (v & a), entitled: view of a water-mill, near ridware. The v & a further suggests it may be pipe ridware, near lichfield, hamstall ridware or mavesyn ridware near rugeley. However, neither henry harris lines nor his brothers exhibited pieces related to any of these mills except for mavesyn ridware. It has therefore been attributed to henry harris and dated shortly before 1874, when he exhibited a painting entitled mavesyn ridware mill at the royal birmingham society of artists"
