This mill, thought to be located on a branch of the Claydon Brook, is long gone. It is not shown on any modern map. There was a close association between the neighbouring manors of Winslow and Granborough, and it is uncertain whether there were separate mills in each manor, or whether there was just one mill. The above map reference is provided to indicate the likely location of an early watermill.
