The mill at New Mill
A large frieze was saved from the original mill, but now it lies on the ground beside the present entrance to the mill, forlorn and vandalised. However, at least this two-foot high wheatsheaf fragment was sufficiently intact to enable a photo to be taken.

Grass surface towpath on Wendover Arm, Grand Union Canal
From Bulbourne to the flour mill at Tring Wharf the towpath has a hard surface. Just past the mill it changes to a grass surface for most of the stretch to the present end of the canal.

Grand Union Canal (Wendover Arm): Tring Mill
The mill is currently owned by Heygates, and their website, with a history of the mill, is here http://www.heygates.co.uk/general/the-mills/ The enormous mill buildings are totally at odds with the very rural nature of the rest of the canal arm.

Heygates Flour Mill
Much photographed already, but I quite like the tree shadows on this one.
A large modern mill where a windmill once stood, this is one of three mills operated by Heygates.
History of all three, plus recipes and lots of stuff about flour on their site http://www.heygates.co.uk/general/the-mills/

Wendover Arm at Gamnel Wharf
There has been flour milling at Gamnel Wharf since the 19th century - and possibly before - the last windmill, run by William Mead, being demolished in 1910 to make way for a wheat storage silo. In those days, Mead lived on site, in a house next to the yard, and owned much of the area taken by the mill of today. The remaining space was occupied by boat-builders, Bushell Brothers, who built narrowboats. The business was taken over by Heygates in 1944, since when it has undergone a series of remodellings and now has a milling capacity of over 10 tonnes of wheat per hour. Its fleet of articulated trucks deliver flour throughout the South of England.
While the Mill is not a pretty sight, it is a significant employer in Tring.
