Newmillerdam Mill

Description and History of Site:-
In 1973, Hatcher described as "Extremely decrepit condition. Presumably used dam water. Possible traces of out-flow." In 1986, having been surprisingly well restored as some point since 1973, was operating as a restaurant with accommodation above. Currently (2017) used as a beauty salon, "The Beauty Mill".
