Lord's Mill

Mill which used the fulling process of pounding the loosely woven cloth to knit the fibres and shrink them to produce a tight textural whole. The mill also scoured the fabric to soften and clean it using water from the nearby Mill Pond. The mill was closed when the government resumed the land for the pumping station.
