Full Description

SK 057 817: Milton, Corn Mill: Corn-mill on the bank of Huckholme Brook. It was pond fed, although the pond has now gone. The mill has a stone roof. It was used for grinding corn until the mid 19th century. The wheelhouse survives as a lean-to at the rear of the building [in 1970]. (1,2). It is unclear whether this building is still in existence. The reference above appears to say it is. However, the record's polygon has been plotted using the OS maps and overlies a later 'works' building. (3).
