Summary

According to the 1836 Ordnance Survey, a drainage mill once stood here. The tithe award map marks a Horse Fen Mill in 1838 but shows it on the other side of dyke. It is therefore possible that the mill here was the one shown on the 1838 map, with the 1836 Ordnance Survey misplacing it in error.
