The mills have been converted to dwellings but some features have been retained. These gear driven pumps are partly buried and the steam engine that drove them has been scrapped. Another engine has been partly scrapped but parts are preserved in a modern steel archway near the entrance drive. It is a shame the developers did not do more to save these items intact.
