Modern mill leat.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts a water mill at this location, annotated as 'T. Mill'.


A leat is shown leading along the north side of the valley from the millpond to the mill. It extends a distance of 100m. An overflow sluice protects the mill. A short tailrace leads water back into the stream downslope from the mill.


The leat is now filled in and the ground returned to agriculture. It is intermittently visible as a cropmark.


The grid reference relates to the midpoint of the leat.
