Somewhere near the top of this lane was Sayer’s or Devereux's Mill. It was probably a post mill, and one of five mills in Beccles which at one time ground corn for flour. Believed to have been built by Joseph Devereux sometime around 1820. But a mill was known on or near the site in 1742. To read more about Beccles mills I recommend "The Lost windmills of Beccles" by Margaret Knox.
