Most old fashioned water wheels are considered historical attractions, mainly due to the lack of them. Most wheels have either rotted over time or have been taken away to make way for progress in, for example, the industrial revolution. I suppose they may have been altered to produce energy but the only watermills that generate power are small ones used on projects like eco homes.
