A notice on the wall of The Fulling Mill in Alresford (see also http://365project.org/jqf/365/2015-12-01 ) and 750 years later, fishing on The River Arle is popular, but fishing rights are still privately owned. Some people pay exhorbitant sums of money for a day's trout fishing near here.
In medieval times the fulling, or cleaning, of woollen cloth was often undertaken in a water mill by beating it with wooden hammers.
