HER Number:MDV13693
Name:Harbourneford Mill, South Brent

Summary

Harbourneford mill. Extant. Now private house. The earliest reference found to this mill is 1747, the latest 1851. It appears to have been a corn mill until the 19th century and then possibly an umber mill. As the hamlet was an independent manor at Domesday the mill site could have a very early date.
