A mill has operated here since the medieval period and was known as West Mill by the 15th century (The East Mill later became Gatweick Mill, see Image). The current building was erected in the 18th century and extended in the 19th by which time it was known as Court Mill. It remained in operation until at least 1927 though by that time it used to grind animal feed. Since then it has been converted into a residence though some of the machinery, including the 1913 waterwheel remains intact. Both building and the entrance gates are listed.
