I Remember When It Burned Down...
Such a shame. Many wonderful hours spent fishing around the Mill and surrounding waterways - Deadman's Pool, the backwater, shingle island, Manor Island and 'The Bend'. All swept away one year and turned into a canal! Shame really...

The original village, to the north-east, was known as Barn Green.
The large house on the left is Brewery House, and behind the post box is Brewery Barn with Brewery Cottages close by.
Next to the house is a flint barn, and to the left is another old farmhouse.
There is an air of dereliction in this picture; the site of the old barn on the right has been redeveloped as the Polmewan Flats.
Indeed, the great 16th-century tithe barn survives nearby.
Initially a hamlet, the village of Barns Green dates from the Middle Ages, but grew rapidly during the 18th and 19th centuries following the opening of the Mid-Sussex railway line.
Mill Cottage and the converted barn called Granary House are all that remain of the mill complex.
The buildings round the green date from the 18th to 19th centuries, with the exception of the 17th-century barn with a hipped and thatched roof to the right of the church.
All the houses have been restored and the barns converted.
Hall Garth, built c1800, stands opposite the cross; behind is a long stone barn to store corn.
its remarkably rural surroundings, its building materials include examples of a geological oddity: blocks of iron cemented gravel-stone (Fericrete), which is also to be seen in the base of Manor Farm barn
The barn on the right has had the almost flat roofed shed replaced by a wing with a pitched roof.
This view from Grip Wood shows the rear of the Tithe Barn, which defines the southern edge of Barton Manor Farm.
houses in different styles, as evidenced here by the creeper-clad building on the right, the tall-chimneyed cottages with their neatly trimmed hedges at the crossroads, and the weatherboard and brick barn
This scene has changed little: the post office has now expanded to take in the neighbouring shop, but the cottages and barns remain.
To the right is Church House, which shortly before this view was taken had ceased to be a farmhouse; the flint walls in front are remnants of its barns, retained as boundary walls.
There is also a tithe barn and a dovecote still housing pigeons.
The house on the left, South Royd, with its attached barn, has now had the paint removed from the stonework.
In the foreground are the roofs of the barns and warehouses of the maltings, evidence of the importance of the river to Abingdon's industrial past.
The barn to the right has now been incorporated into the main part of the building and windows added.
On the left is an enamelled sign advertising beer - 'Hancocks: the Best' - and what looks like Jack Barnes's bread van delivering bread to the village.
The buildings round the green date from the 18th to 19th centuries, with the exception of the 17th- century barn with a hipped and thatched roof to the right of the church.
Next door are the twin half-timbered gables in the antique style of the Fairby Stores and Post Office and, beyond, a lofty weatherboarded barn.
The barn on the left of the photograph has since been removed, and this area beside the river is now a car park for visitors to the nearby castle.
