Working Flour Mill by pcoulson

Working Flour Mill

Letheringsett Watermill is the last remaining watermill in Norfolk still producing flour,
The Domesday book of 1068 records a mill on this site although the current building was constructed in 1802,
Mike and Marion Thurlow took over the disused mill on the River Glaven in 1987 and restored the mill to working order, it is still family owned and run.
Oh wow, still producing flour? S many have been converted to retail areas. Excellent collage.
