Striking white brick and flint faced inn standing at a crossroads on the main B1111. The Mill used to be the unofficial tap for Old Chimneys Brewery and old pump clips can still be seen behind the bar. It offers a good choice of beers, complemented by a good menu of home cooked meals.
The cellar has a stream running through it!

Historical interest

Large flint clad pub, situated just around the corner from Old Chimneys brewery. The majority of the building is given over to dining (no food Sun. eve), including a non-smoking restaurant, but the distinct front bar area is kept for drinkers. A good restoration of a pub which had been closed for two years.
