Replacement work only at this mill: a new wooden shaft and iron gudgeon 1973.

Currently: This mill is located near the Saracen superstore, which sells animal food products. Parts of the watermill are still intact, but in poor condition. Inside some of the machinery exists. Adjacent to the mill is the mill pond still full of water.
