Abstract: |
Historic building recording in advance of redevelopment was undertaken on a former tower mill at Walpole Highway. The brick tower probably dates from the late 18th or early 19th centuries, with a possible 19th-century extension from third floor level and a late 19th- to early 20th-century top floor. The mill cap was removed in 1969 and consequently the upper floors have rotted and collapsed. The second floor is still in place but in a dangerous condition. The first floor originally housed the millstones, the positions of which can still be seen. The first floor also contains a beam inscribed with the date 1743, which has probably been re-used from an earlier structure. |
