'Healings Flour Mill, Tewkesbury'
This splendid old girldates back to 1865 and was once considered to be the largest and most modern flour mill in the world!
Grain was brought in by road, rail and river, it must have been a major hive of activity at the height of its production.
However, the mill closed its doors in November 2006 after 140 years of milling!
It has recently been sold to the 'St Francis Group' who prepare sites for 'redevelopment.'
