The Mill There were originally two mills in the village, Higher and Lower, supplying the area with flour. Higher mill has been subsequently demolished, leaving this excellent example of an overshot waterwheel at the lower mill. The watermill has been renovated over the past few years and was officially opened by the town Mayor on Saturday 10th May 2003. Water Mill Website
