The old flax mill near Grillagh Bridge, north of Maghera, was built sometime between 1860 and 1900. The mill retains its internal waterwheel and most of its machinery. The waterwheel is about one third underwater and part of the mill is flooded. The mill pond was immediately behind the mill but has dried up.
