What is recorded here

Located in the bed of a NW-SE stream where it is visible as timbers prodtruding from the NE bank c. 1.3m below the ground surface. A large oak base-beam (L 2.65m; H 0.4m) is probably from the NE side of the mill pool but a plank (L 2m; Wth 0.42m plus; T 0.1m) from the wall obove it collapsed into the stream in antiquity with a weight of riverbank clay on top of it. The base-beam on the NW side (L 0.8m; dims 0.23m x 0.15m) partially survives in situ. Part of a mill-wheel arm (L 0.77m) had been found at the location in the 1970s and is kept at a nearby house.
