The \u201cpit wheel\u201d, the \u201cgreat spur\u201d and the&nbsp; shafts for the \u201cstone nuts\u201d which actually turned the \u201cmill stones\u201d; all made out of wood were still in good condition. Outside in the stream standing against the wall of the mill,there was still&nbsp; part of the actual waterwheel; although only the metal framework.\u201d Carole Popham tells us \u201dMy grandparents, Ben and Betty Barry used to farm here. I remember visiting late fifties\/early sixties. I went back last year for the first time since then and was sad to see that there was virtually nothing left but did find some bricks from the old dairy. As a child it was a wonderful place to visit but there was no lighting in the house and life must have been quite hard for my grandparents.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Image courtesy of Mrs Lilian Waton; thanks to Stuart Gray and Carole Popham for the updates.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n<p>Now no longer standing but in 1946 it was for sale; all 32 acres of it with the house standing by the side of the swift running mill stream and adjoining a series of waterfalls, at the end of the house is the old water wheel.
