Remains of a Mill in 1993 I thought I had lost this one. This is the same mill as in my 2013 picture <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3462437">SU5571 : Remains of a Mill</a> only taken 20 years earlier.
Enough of the structure still remains to get an idea of what the working mill must have been like.
