The National Monuments Service's description
A Deed dated 1718 mentions an ancient mill race and watercourse that leads to an iron mill at Milltown (pers comm. Rob Goodbody). Remains of an iron mill survive in the grounds of the last terraced house in Mill Lane at Bankside cottages. The mill pond has been largely back-filled for use as a car park but a portion of the mill pond is still extant. A mill race led to this mill from the Slang river at windy Arbour.
