In the 1790s there was a water powered cotton mill on this site beside the Avon in Milverton. This was subsequently converted to the production of flour and, to overcome the limitations of variable and limited flows steam power was subsequently added, hence the chimney to the left on the trees. After a period of near dereliction thankfully this historic structure survives, albeit converted into upmarket flats.
