Haxted Mill, Haxted

Watching brief by N Shaikhley of SCAU identified and recorded a large timber beam in the base of one of the foundation trenches of a new extension. The date of the beam is unclear, but it is possible that it acted as part of a revetment, which confined the flow of the river towards the water wheel that powered the mill. The beam has been preserved in situ on the site.
