There has been a watermill at Tonge for 900 years. The present building was erected in 1837. The gears and waterwheel were removed and the stream diverted. The building later became Wick's bakery. In 1970 the mill was converted to accommodate two families who run a craft centre and tea shop. Tonge Mill is Grade II Listed.
