Loddon watermill Loddon watermill was sometimes known as Chedgrave mill and is one of the earliest recorded buildings in the town.
Arthur Charles Sadd b.1854 Henstead, Suffolk, was one of the founders of Woods, Sadd, Moore & Co. Ltd.
I suffered serious flooding, the worst being in 1912 when a section of the roadway next to the mill was washed away and part of the bridge caved in soon afterwards. Another flood in living memory happened on 12th September 1968 when a temporary Bailey bridge had to be erected after the bridge was rendered unsafe.
In 1928 the mill was converted to electricity but finally ceased operation in 1968.  <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7130907">TM3699 : Loddon watermill</a>
