Fazeley formed part of the estate that Peel bought in 1790 as part of his Tamworth parliamentary package. The Old Mill was opened in 1790 for cotton spinning and calico printing and was water powered. The building is 3 storeys high and at first was 8 bays but a further 11 were added. The Peel family ended its connection with the mills in 1841. Fred Brook - Industrial Archaeology of the West Midlands (1977).
