The mill was last operated in 1949. All machinery is secured and locked off. However, the mill machinery can be seen on changeover day by arrangement with the owners.

Immediately in front is an open-sided games barn (table tennis). Paddock for football kicking nearby. You are welcome to wander the estate, and 300 yards of pretty walk away is an outdoor heated swimming pool (20' x 40' x 9' to 3' deep, available 31 May to 30 August), co-operatively shared with the owners and occupants of E66 and E68.

The miller’s house is flagstoned on the ground floor, carpeted upstairs, its walls mainly white or colour-washed, beams, window seats, original shutters. Front door to long hall divided by a fine oak screen (c1620) from the original ‘dwelling room’, now the dining room, with gigantic fireplace - 10' wide with Victorian cast iron stove. Next door, a utility room (washing machine, tumble drier, freezer, back door). Also on ground floor, fitted kitchen (dishwasher, microwave) and bathroom (suite). On first floor (steepish stairs, handrail), big, beautiful living room with cast iron Victorian open fireplace, windows both sides, lovely oak screen, and two twin bedrooms, one right above the mill race (you can see the mill wheel and mill pond from bed) with low beams and en suite shower-room (suite), both with lovely views. Steep stairs to the second floor landing, and huge, beautiful master bedroom (5' bed) with low doorway. Also loo/washbasin.

We would very much like to stay here, but it could be dangerous (outside) for children: sensible children welcome under careful supervision.

... and in the middle of the same 500 acre estate,  mile from ‘the Gingerbread House’ (same owners, E66), is a miller’s house attached to a mill reputed to be the oldest (c1620) in Somerset with still working machinery. The whole building
is Grade II listed, and has been marvellously restored in conjunction with English Heritage. It won the Somerset Building Preservation Trust award 2000. It stands proudly beside a mill race, overshot mill wheel and waterfall, and a still, peaceful acre of mill pond with island: rowing boat for your use (your risk), duck, geese, occasional swans, coarse fish.
