Dist:0.1km north<br/>The mill was operating as a tourist shop in 1995. Isaac Willey of Helston cast the waterwheel shrouds - the ironwork that carries the wooden buckets - at Helston in 1907. This was also known as Bossava Mill and was the upper of two mills; the lower mill used this mill's tail water, a practice quite common in west Cornwall where streams were small and water was worked for all its worth
