Uploader's Comments

Dating from the mid-1700s, the Grade II-listed Millstone had a long tradition as a public house in the centre of the village, and was used by generations of farmers and villagers. It once had a popular skittles room and was the major social amenity in the village until its closure in 1938.

Now a private residence, this most attractive building lost its thatch in the 1960s. The stonework reflects various periods of building when the property was extended and there is an old dovecote in the back garden, now in a state of disrepair, that harks back to a much earlier time when this was a way to ensure fresh meat.
