With its heavy oak framework, low beams and floors connected by wooden ladders, set beneath an enormous sloping stone roof, this charmingly rustic mill is one of only four virtually complete corn mills in Cheshire. A fascinating and unusual watermill, dating from the 15th century. It has overshot tandem wheels and is powered by water from a lake, beside which the mill is built. The Victorian machinery was restored in the 1960s and is now in full working order, with regular flour-grinding demonstrations.
