Taken from the
Crabble Corn Mill Trust website;
Owned, operated and maintained by Crabble Corn
Mill Trust, the mill was rescued from demolition and opened to the
public in 1990. It can now boast to be one of the most complete and
working examples of a Georgian watermill in Europe.
The current structure was built in 1812
alongside an existing mill which was later demolished to allow for
additional storage space - what is now an exhibition area on the
ground floor and tea rooms. However, records show that there has been
a mill on this site since at least 1227 when Henry III granted a
Charter of Confirmation to St. Radigund's Abbey, the ruins of which
are still be seen today on the hill above the village.
