Vis=29/9/1992 (stead and pearce) rock farm is now a trout farm. The waterwheel of mill still functions as a 'feature'. Teh stone launder carrying water to the wheel has been replaced with an iron pipe beneath the road. The tailrace from the waterwheel follows its original course although the channel has been canalised.
