Some of the present buildings date back to 1789 and include the brickGeorgian miller's house and offices flanking a 3½-storeywatermill of brick and whiteweatherboarding. There has been a mill here since at least the late 16th century and possiblyDomesday. George Reynolds Wright took full control of the mill in 1870. It was originally powered by a backwater of theRiver Lea: in 1913 owing to construction work at the nearbyKing George V Reservoir the water supply which powered themillstones was cut off. The machinery was then converted toelectricity. Since then further improvements have been made.
