On 12 July, as part of Chudfest week, our Chair, David Harrrison, led a history walk around the town. As we were passing Town Mills (long a private residence, but still having a working water wheel and machinery), the owner invited us in to see the workings. Unfortunateky the leat had been too dry recently to drive the wheel, but we were given a rare treat to see the wheel up close.
