2008 : Doynton, Toghill Lane
At the junction of Toghill Lane and Church Road. The scene gives an idea of the quiet nature of the village. ----------------------------------- "Doynton's history can be traced back to the Domesday Book (1086) in which the village is mentioned as having two mills. One was probably a corn mill and the other a tucking or fulling mill connected with the Cotswold woollen cloth industry. Both these mills were important to the survival of the village and were referred to again in historical records 500 years later. The tuck mill, however, is not mentioned after the middle of the 17th century. The corn mill continued in use until the 1950s marking nine centuries of service to the village. The mill wheel and old machinery were then broken up and electrically-powered equipment installed. More recently a light engineering firm has taken over the site." The above was copied from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doynton

Six ton limit
A small barn near the church has a Women's Institute notice board for good measure. The road here drops slightly and allows rainwater to drop into a small ditch below via drains. Looking closer at the cast iron plate in the wall (see Image]) it reveals the fact that this bit of tarmac is actually a bridge.
