Cooper's Mill
Archaeology
Modern mill leat.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1869 shows a complex of buildings together with the annotation, 'Flour Mill'.
A long leat, some 600m in length, extends upstream to a substantial weir which draws water from the River Neb. The leat is guarded by a sluice, to which the grid reference relates.
The leat survives for almost all of its length, but has been diverted into the River Neb some 50m upstream of the mill, where the outfall is clearly visible.
