Sisland Mill
River Chet |
May 1970
|
Sisland Mill was at Washingford Farm and had probably ceased working by the mid 1800s. |
O. S. Map 1884 |
The dotted parish boundary indicates that the river's course has been re-routed to the south and that it once flowed through the farm complex, which is where the mill was likely to have been. |
