'Spittlegate Mill' {1}
Late 18th century brick mill house with adjoining watermill. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest.{2}
Spittlegate Mill, better known to the locals as Swallow's Mill. There have been a number of mills on the Witham in the Grantham area, including a slate mill in the northeast outskirts of the town, but Swallow's corn mill has always been the most important. Over the years other forms of power have been installed but the waterwheel has been in use within living memory. Today, however, the mill is silent as such and the building has been converted into prestigious apartments.{3}
Spittlegate Mill House was built adjoining the water mill. None of the interior joinery features survive, but the chimney piece was rescued in c.1950 and is now in Bow House [PRN 38870]. {4} | Subjects: | Building | Temporal: | 1750 - 2050 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
