A quick visit as not much left to see, glad we got there before it completely went but not one to travel any distance to see, unless it is en route or you are local. I'm surprised demolition hasn't been completed to make way for the plans for houses to be built on this site.


A little history:
In 1850 the town's main trade was in corn. A lot of the local produce was transported by vessels from the mills and quay at Stambridge.

Stambridge Mill is adjacent to the River Roach and has historically been used as a mill for the transport and processing of grain. This ceased late 90s and the site has been vacant since.


Rubble has been piled up to prevent entrance to the building, although a skinny mini could slip in the gap if they dare to brave the pigeons.

If anyone has any more history, please share as it would be interesting to know....
