Two of the original Three Mills which give Three Mills Island its name (the third mill is now sadly gone). House Mill was built in 1776, Clock Mill in 1817, with the clock and bell from an older building. You can visit House Mill on certain open days, and there’s a volunteer-run cafe on Sundays.

Three Mills Island is part of the oldest recorded example of a tidal mill system, and over the years its mills have ground it all, from flour to gunpowder to grain for gin.
