Modern watermill and associated water management.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1868-9 shows a building at the grid reference provided, together with the annotation 'Corn Mill'.


The mill building is orientated east-west. The wheel was located on the south wall, and various annexes, now demolished, provided storage.


It was supplied by a leat extending 95m upstream, where the inlet took water from the river by means of a weir and sluice. A short 15m tail race returned water directly to the river.


The mill machinery was removed in 1971 and the building subsequently converted into a dwelling. The mill leat supplies garden water features.
