Notes about this historic site

1 The site of Admington mill was to the south of the modern Top Farm, in a field called Mill Windsor. It was not functioning in 1355, and seems to have been brought back into operation in 1391, when the lord offered the lessee help with building timber and with carriage of mill stones. In the absence of this mill a tenant had operated a malt mill – probably horse driven – which is mentioned in 1377.
2 The precise site of Admington mill is now established, as there is a line of stones presumably representing the foundations of the mill dam in the bed of the stream.
