Ref (S2) gives fuller details of the mill.
It is shown as Mill Hill on an early 19th century map. A Millway is mentioned in 17th century and may be the same as a Millgate and 'Novum moledinum' in 1332 and 1388 respectively. The references to Lovells Mill are in 1388 and 1350
('Lovel Milnhill'). However some or all of these earlier references might be to site NHER 25045.
