I am not sure, if this information is new/relevant.
Anyways, I would like to mention the water driven
winder at the Samson ore mine in St. Andreasberg
(Harz mountains) in Germany.
There is a description with photographs at

The water wheel is a 'double wheel', which can be used
in both directions.
Greetings Harald
