Hitchin: The former Grove Mill

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 13 Jun 2010

This former corn mill was built at the confluence of the Rivers Hiz and Purwell, and was once possibly known as Burnt Mill. Victorian Ordnance Survey maps show Grove Mill and a large building called Grove House, since demolished, a short distance away up the hill towards Cadwell Lane. The mill has since been converted and is in use today as a nursery, Kinders Mill Nursery http://www.kindersmill.co.uk/page_viewer.asp?page=Home&pid=1
