The Old Mill, Honiton

According to a Rotary Club plaque there has been a mill here since before 1792 and this mill was at work until 1968 when floods destroyed the leat supplying the overshot wheel. It was saved from demolition in 1981 and part restored. The current wheel was made in Honiton by Mickleburgh Foundry. The mill is currently boarded up and looking worse for wear.
