Blackdown Mill
Blackdown Mill
The original mill burnt down in 1859 and was replaced by another moved wholesale from Biddenden in Kent. Consequently, this mill is sometimes known by its original name, Cherry Clack Mill. The sweeps fell into disrepair and were removed sometime in the 1930s though the mill continued to grind using a combustion engine instead, it was after the war that the original family decided on restoration. Taken from the footpath that heads up the slope from Greenwoods Lane towards the mill.
