Full Description
{1} In 1725 there was a north mill holme immediately to the south of the vicarage and church. This is a considerable distance from the then surviving water mill and so it may denote the presence nearby of an earlier mill.
{2} A fulling mill is recorded in the manorial court rolls in the early 14th century, but it seems likely that this mill lay in the dependent Brigstock holding in Stanion, as reference is made to it lying in the South Field. Without further detailed documentary research it cannot however be proved for certain that it did not lay in Brigstock.
