Gimingham Corn Mill was a watermill which sat beside the River Mun. For many years it ran on water power alone but changed to turbine power in 1912. This was supplemented by a steam engine. The head of water was on the opposite side of the road and flowed beneath the road directly into the wheel. The mill continued working until 30th November 1976, using its diesel engine to mill animal feedstuffs. The engine is seen here Image
