Millingbæk forbinder Borresø med Slåensø. SlåenSø er opstemt 2 meter for at vandkraften kunne udnyttes til en vandmølle. Møllen har været brugt til forskellige formål: at kværne benmel, et savværk og en træskofabrik. Senest husede møllen en restaurant, som brændte i 1952. I dag ses kun det lille opstemmede vandfald samt flere store møllesten.

The Millingbæk brook connects Borresø lake with Slåensø Lake. Slåensø lake is dammed 2 meters to exploit the water power. The mill has been used for several purposes: grinding bone meal, a sawmill and a clogs factory. The mill housed a restaurant when it burned in 1952. Today you can only see the dammed waterfall and a few large millstones in the area.
