Seen in dramatic evening sunlight across Field Mill Pond, this house dates back to the late 18th century. It was the Master's house of Field Mill. The mill itself, which was demolished in 1925, stood immediately to the left of the house and towered over it. After standing empty for many years, the house was converted to a pub (Early Doors) in the 1990's and is now an Indian Restaurant. You can see an old photo (pre-1925) showing the house and mill here http://www.old-mansfield.org.uk/tales/newbook.htm
