Harvington Mill This ruinous watermill building is listed GII but is in poor condition. There are the remains of two water wheels - one on the right hand gable wall and one inside the big arch to the left. Some machinery can be seen through the barred windows but access was neither sensible nor possible, although urban explorers have found a way in.
