Clock Mill stands opposite House Mill. The mill was rebuilt on an earlier site by Philip Metcalfe; he is commemorated by a cast date plate on the front of Clock Mill stating ‘PM 1817’. It ground grain for distillation into Gin and had three waterwheels. It continued to operate until 1952 and still contains a great spur wheel. There is currently no public access.
