Monument record 1821/4/1 - Tattenhall Flour Mill

An eighteenth century three storey brick and slate building survives and is now part of a milk distribution center. The large pool is silted up. It fed the wheel through a culvert along the bank (1).

The mill building, adjacent to the High Street, is clearly depicted on the tithe map of 1838 (2).

The mill complex has expanded into a long linear arrangement of buildings which includes a smithy and a gas works (3).

Demolished during redevelopment of the milk distribution center (4).
