Old Mill at Chaffeys Locks photo by: Ken Watson, 2002 |
The old gristmill, located beside the waste weir at Chaffeys Lock, was built in 1872 by John Chaffey. It was originally built entirely of stone, but a spring flood in about 1904 damaged the outer corner of the building and it was repaired with wood. In 1941 it was purchased by Arthur Phelps who had the building renovated as a private residence, and put on a new roof. It is still a private residence, however the main floor is an arts & crafts gallery open to the public. |
