Full Description

It is not clear whether there was definitely a mill at Bracebridge in the Med period. A mill at "Brese-bridge" is mentioned in Harrison's survey of 1635. At that time the mill complex included a "dwelling house of 3 bayes, a kilne and maulthouse of 2 bayes, a mill house of 2 bayes and other outhouses of 4 bayes". It is also referred to in a deed of 1650 amoung the Arundel Castle Muniments at Sheffield Archives. However, no mill buildings appear to be shown on the earliest surviving map, and its exact site is therefore uncertain. (1)
