Roller Mill
Converted watermill now used as a day centre by Age Concern. The mill appears some distance from the current channel of the River Penk but maybe had long mill leats.

Old Cottage in Bellbrook, Penkridge, Staffordshire
The Grade II listed cottage is probably from the 15th century, with later alterations. It is timber framed and partially rebuilt in brick. That roof looks amazingly straight to me, so is probably part of 20th century maintenance. The Market Place is up the lane to the right.

The River Penk at Penkridge, Staffordshire
The river is seen here from the A449 at Bull Bridge.
The River Penk has its source in Perton three miles from Wolverhampton. Its course is mainly through South Staffordshire draining most of the northern part of that district, together with some adjoining areas of Cannock Chase, Stafford, Wolverhampton, and Shropshire. It flows into the River Sow, which is a tributary of the River Trent, so its waters flow eventually into the North Sea via the Humber Estuary. (Details from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Penk )
