Old Mill, South Bedburn, Durham

This was the site of a 14th-century fulling mill before this textile-spinning mill was built towards the end of the 18th century. It has also been a corn mill, as well as Bedburn Sawmill and Bedburn Forge. It was water-powered, although no machinery remains at the site.
