This former mill on the River Coln is Stowell Mill. Built in the late 18th century with later extensions to both sides. Constructed of coursed stone with dressed stone to the openings, all under a stone slate roof. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1152555 Starting at Fossebridge, where the Fosse Way descends precipitously to cross the River Coln, the walk gently ascends on a road and then a bridleway to meet a minor road which is part of the Salt Way. After using the Salt Way to cross the Fosse Way the route descends on footpaths and minor roads via Oxpens Farm and Stowell Mill to return to Fossebridge.
