Mill Lane is a cute little gravel lane with picturesque houses along its edge. It leads down to Calcot Mill and its mill pond. It was built by monks from Reading Abbey. Sadly after being ruined by fire in the 1960s, the mill was converted to flats and is no longer in working order.

It is said that Wilder's Folly was built as wild romantic gesture by the Reverend Henry Wilder. He lived at Sulham House, while Jane Thoyts, who he was trying to woo, lived nearby at Sulhamstead House. The folly was positioned at the exact spot where you could see both houses. Take a look to the north as you can still see Sulham House today.
