Historical interest
The pub is shown (but not named) on this old OS map from about 1903 (interactive map)
Easter tea – Fri 10 inst. … about 30 principal inhabitants assembled at Mill inn to participate in an excellent tea provided by landlord Mr R Easter… it was quite substantial with usual loyal toasts drunk and a very comfortable evening of social parochial intercourse was passed.Ipswich Journal, 18 April 1863.
The pub underwent a major internal refurbishment in early 2012. The bar has been moved to the back of the building where the old dining area used to be and a new restaurant with sea views. New drinking areas have been created.
The 1904 Woodbridge licensing record shows that the Mill's license was issued in 1790.
Also listed in the 19th century as being on the Esplanade and on the beach.…
