Notes about this historic site
1 There are two probable watermill sites in Offchurch. These may be two of three mills mentioned in 1297. One of them, known as Offchurch Mill, was held by Edward Sadler of Fillongley in 1546-7. In 1585 two mills are mentioned but one of them had disappeared by 1702. Traces of watercourses are visible.
3 The site was visited and no trace remains.

Hello
I have found a record of a miller called Henry Phillips. He was at Ruendon Mill, in Offchurch, Wcks, in 1578. I found this whilst looking in National Archives on-line – a document Ref: DD/E/82/10 is held at Nottingham Archives, apparently.
