Dist:0.5km<br/>The grid reference is a bit of a guess as the modern map shows no church and the Geograph 1940s map is unclear but this spot appears to have a church symbol! Not long for this world it seems.

Dist:0.5km<br/>There has been a mill here since at least 1608. There have been grist, fulling and gig mills here. In 1825 the site was making cloth woven on power looms. From 1900 to 1954 the mill wove carpets and then until closure it spun carpet yarn for Carpets of Worth for weaving in Stourport. The site is now disused and waiting its fate. The Stourport factory has been flattened and the site is now being built on.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Because of the twists and turns of the valley the road at this point runs due north south. This is the view south on the very western edge of the grid square.

Dist:0.6km<br/>A mill site since at least the 17th century and housing gig and fulling mills originally. Power looms were in use for cloth weaving in the 1830s but cloth making ended in the 1880s. Paint and chemical manufacture were carried out until the 1960s and the site is now in multiple occupancy. Some 1820s buildings survive. The chimney really does lean.
