Papplewick, NG15
The south elevation of the former "Top Mill" (a.k.a. Robinson's Mill and Castle Mill, on account of its design) as seen from a field at its rear. The mill was constructed on Linby Lane c.1777 for a Mr George Robinson (a Scot previously known as Robertson). After it ceased to function as a cotton mill, c.1820, it was used as a corn-mill. It was purchased by the Hucknall Torkard Industrial Provident Society in 1919, who sold it in 1952 when it was converted in apartments. Some of the surrounding land and leats are still owned by the Cooperative Society. Sadly, the graves of some of the many pauper children who were brought from the St Marylebone Workhouse to work in this mill and who died 'in service' can be seen in Linby Church graveyard.

Papplewick, NG15
The north elevation of the former "Top Mill" (a.k.a. Robinson's Mill and Castle Mill, on account of its design) as viewed from what is now the driveway of these premises converted into apartments in 1952. The B6011 now runs along the other side of the hedge on the left of this picture although originally this driveway - once the road between Linby and Papplewick - passed almost immediately in front of the mill along the top of a dam that held back the body of water used to drive a mill wheel previously situated to the left. The mill was constructed in 1782 for a Mr George Robinson (a Scot previously known as Robertson), although after it ceased to function as a cotton mill - c.1820 - it was used as a corn-mill. It was purchased by the Hucknall Torkard Industrial Provident Society in 1919 and sold on again later. When water power was no longer required and once the reservoir was no longer necessary the water behind the dam - beyond the hedge - was drained (c.1946). Sadly, the graves of some of the many pauper children who were brought from St Marylebone Workhouse to work in this mill and who died 'in service' can be seen in Linby Church graveyard.
