River Wye (Mill Brook) in Wycombe
River Wye (Mill Brook) in Wycombe
Up until about the 1900s Wycombe used to have a couple of corn mills in this area, powered by water flowing along this leat, while the main river ran parallel and to the south. The mills are long gone but the word lives on in the road names. This is the leat approaching the Mill End Road bridge.
