Tuckenhay Paper Mills

The clock tower of the central late Victorian (1889) block of the mills, which closed in 1970 and were converted into holiday homes. "Tuckenhay was the last vat mill, designed to be used solely for hand papermaking, to be established in South West England." But the original building here was a woollen mill.
