St George's Woollen Mill

Archaeology

The site of a modern corn mill. The Ordnance Survey First edition mapping of 1869 shows a mill race leading to an unmarked structure at this location.  The building began life as a flour mill in the 1850s, operated by a proprietor named Moughtin.  Within twenty years cornmilling ceased, and the mill was later converted for textile manufacture and subsequently operated by a succession of owners and managers, using a range of water-powered machinery.
