Many acres of the fields at the base of this small river valley provided the bleaching greens of Annvale Mills during the 19th and early 20th centuries. At its peak, Annvale had over 20 mill buildings and employed hundreds. At present the fields are used for horses and farming. However, there are plans to build housing on much of this land.
