From the first shudder as the Mill's water turbine slowly begin to turn bringing this magnificient building to life you are transported back in time when the mill was a noisy, workplace,reverberating with the loud slapping of the leather pulleys turning the clattering pinions and drive wheels which are driving the hammer mills. As the meal is fed down into the mills from the upper story and the ground flour is collected into the sacks a cloud pervades every corner of the building eventually covering everyone and everything in a fine layer of dust. Such was the day to day conditions experienced by the miller and his family as they worked to turn the yield of the farmer's fields into the necessity of life for the local community.

Still in good working order the present mill dates from the end of the 17th century with considerable renovation in the 19th century, although there has been a mill on this site for over 1000 years.
