Arrow Mill, Kingsland

Location

Grid reference: SO437587
OS sheet: 148
Postcode: HR6 9AT
At Arrow Green, 1½ miles S of Kingsland. Mill entrance is on W side of the A4110 road, just N of the bridge over the River Arrow.

Probably the best mill in Herefordshire, a large 17th century timber-framed building with a low breastshot waterwheel - which should be turning. The 19th century machinery, mostly of iron, and 3 pairs of millstones, are still in place. Unique features are a machine for beating out clover seeds, driven by very old wooden gearing, and the original beaten-earth ground floor of the mill. There is a fine old flour dresser and in the NE corner of the mill was a hop kiln.
