Cottages, Mornings Mill Farm

Image: © Robin Webster Taken: 3 Sep 2011

This pair of cottages were the first at this site, being shown on late Victorian maps. Then, there were only buildings to the right of the cottages as here and nothing to the left of the cottages as seen in Image The site was merely Mornings Mill until later in the 20th century when 'Farm' was added. The location is not suited to a water mill, and there is no trace of, or reference to, a windmill ever being here, so what was the mill? Perhaps a steam mill with coal from Polegate station goods yard?
