(10/11/1999) Dressing floor associated with the blowing mill 260m south-east of Teignhead Farm. Earthworks immediately south of the blowing mill may relate to dressing operations. Some of these earthworks would have originally been formed during alluvial streamworking but a number of hollows may relate to operations associated with the mill.
