A water powered cotton mill built in 1791; together with nearby Turkey Mill it was the origin of the hamlet of Goose Eye. It was later converted to grind up rags for manufacture into paper at Turkey Mill, and was powered by steam. The chimney was dismantled in 1971. After standing derelict for many years it was converted into residences in 2000.
