The plaque reads: "Site of Brockhampton Mill. The first known mill here is listed within the Domesday Book, the last mill, the largest in the Havant area, has disappeared by 1900. The brick sided tidal basin was used by barges carrying corn and meal, plying between the mill and places on the shores of Langstone and Chichester harbours. Restored in 1984 by Hampshire County Council and Havant Borough Council".
