THERE WAS A TOWER MILL ON THIS SITE WITH TWO PAIRS OF STONES IN 1800 AND IN 1837 IT WAS DESCRIBED AS BEING 'OLD ESTABLISHED'. IT MAY WELL BE AN C18 MILL ALTHOUGH THE UPPER PART LOOKS MORE RECENT THAN THE LOWER. THE MACHINERY IS PRINCIPALLY OF WOOD, WITH A CLASP ARM GREAT SPUR WHEEL. WORK CEASED IN THE EARLY 1920'S WHEN A SAIL WAS LOST BUT CONTINUED WITH AN ENGINE TO A HURST FOR MANY YEARS. THE CAP WAS OFF BY 1935, AND IN THE ABSENCE OF A PROPER ROOF IT HAS BECOME A RUIN WITH MOST OF THE FLOORS COLLAPSED. POWER CAME FROM FOUR PATENT SAILS CARRIED ON STOCKS AND TWO PAIRS OF STONES WERE DRIVEN, ONE FRENCH AND ONE GREY TOGETHER WITH A FURTHER PAIR OF GREY STONES ON A GROUND FLOOR HURST. MOST OF THE LOWER MACHINERY IS BELIEVED TO REMAINS, ALBEIT IN VERY POOR CONDITION. {1}{2}{3}
