Peio also made flour
Vive Cabeceiras · St. Nicholas · património hidráulico inventariado em 2008

A river connected fields, dams and mills.

Levada do Casal records water captured at Peio near Ponte do Gado in Gondarem. The inventory describes five mills along the channel. It is a portrait of the hydraulic heritage, not a confirmation of current operation or public access. The survey of 26 February 2008 identifies a channel in natural land and two consorts: Casa do Casal and Quinta do Boyinho, this one with less watering time. It also describes the close layout of the Levada de Bouças and a landmark in Sendim placed to resolve a divergence of enjoyment. The canal carried water, but its use also depended on agreements between people.
