The Staverton Mill site has a very long and varied history. Along the many centuries it has been providing employment in many fields, and continues to do so today. Although these gates appear to be unusued now, the initials may give a clue. In 1897, the mill was sold to the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company, which later became Nestlé in December 1935. Milk processing ended in the 1980s and the site is now concerned with agricultural cereal production.
