Foreman, Wilfred, Oxfordshire Mills (Phillimore & Co, 1983) On the Cherwell, in 1970 the fine mill and millhouse were being gutted and converted into a large dwelling. There was a low breastshot wheel, but plans were in hand for the Thames Conservators to demolish the wheel. By the 1980s the mill was no longer operational, the wheel had gone, but some mechanical parts remained.
