Full Description
{1} An interesting complex of buildings, amongst the earliest on the Kelmarsh estate.
{2} Possible C18th watermill at Wilderness Farm. Its situation adjacent to the River Ise, the apparently artificial nature of the course of the river here and its proximity to the former village all suggest that this is the site of a medieval water-mill which continued in use into the post medieval period. The former lake to the south-west might have been part of this scheme.
