Churchill Forge water mill was one of the last working water powered forge mills in Britain, and was until the early 1970s producing metal tools such as spades, shovels and ladles. It is a Grade II listed building. This is an interior view looking over the top of the main shaft turned by the larger waterwheel. This originally operated tilt hammers but latterly drove by belt drives and pulleys.
