Blisworth was an important flour milling village for many centuries. The building on the left was built by Joseph Westley and contained a steam powered roller mill which came into operational around 1883. Latterly it was owned by the Pepper and Spice Co. and then converted into residential accommodation in 2000. The boatyard beyond hires and services narrow boats on the Grand Union Canal http://www.blisworth.org.uk/images/BlisworthMill.htm
