The National Monuments Service's description

Formerly the property of St Thomas's Abbey, the mills were granted to William Brabazon in 1544; there were two mills in 1610 (Clarke 2002, 26, G4). The site of watermills known as the Double Mills were located on a millpond S of the present Mill Street (Bradley & King 198; FMD map 1978, N2).
