Notes about this historic site
2 There were two mills held by Pipewell Abbey at Cawston in 1291. One of these may have been at Potford Dam (see PRN 4128), but is not known where the other was located. It may have been the fulling mill which is known to have existed in the latter part of the 12th century.
