Ruined mill

Asturias has a large number of ruined mills. This one is typical. The arch contains a mill-wheel, and is either built over a water-course or has a water-course diverted through it. I´ve looked all round this one and there´s no water-course or sign that there ever was one, but of course there was. 
The building is swallowed by the woods, and extensively ruined, and the interior machinery is missing. It was a surprise to find it in front of me. 
I´ve found it on a map: it´s called El Palacio - The Palace.
