Originally built in 1821, the Grade 2 listed mill was powered by 4 sails, 11 metres in length, and was in commercial use until 1966. Latterly the mill was used for grinding animal feedstuff using newly installed electric rollers but also continued producing stoneground flour. The mill was sold to the local council in 1969 for £1 and after being renovated was opened in 1974 as a working museum.
