Snuff Mill House

Image: © George Robinson Taken: 1 Apr 2007

One of the most impressive buildings in Cottingham, a water mill powered by a beck running along the east side of the present house (now culverted) powered over the years the production of corn, paper, snuff (after 1755) and finally cloth. The house dated from a rebuilding in 1722. The mill was demolished in the 1930's. It is now surrounded by modern housing.
