Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Jesmond Dene - The Old Mill One of many mills to have bordered the Ouse Burn, this one dates back to the 13th century.

The mill was occupied for three or four generations by the Freeman family who used it as a flour mill; a man called Pigg who ground spoiled grain into pollards - a feed for pigs; then by a Mr Charlton who used the mill for grinding flint which was barrelled and carted to a pottery near the mouth of the Ouse Burn for use in the process of putting a glaze on finished pottery.

The watermill was an overshot mill late in its life span and the last waterwheel was removed in 1978 for rebuilding and replacement.
