So it's Ullrich's Pond. But it has nothing to do with the former grinding mill (which one is that? There are, or were, several in HoMi). There used to be the Ullrich wood and furniture factory on Pipping (the house is still standing, now a half-timbered house converted into a residential building), which used the reservoir to generate electricity. How do I know this: My in-laws have lived here since time immemorial; the older ones still remember it; the grinding mill (one of the former ones) is family-owned. You can also read about it online, for example, here: https://www.naturpark-solling-vogler.de/index.php/mittelgebirgsbach.html
