chatsworth mill on the chatsworth estate park derbyshire england uk
Chatsworth Mill fell out of use in 1950 - it is easy to find the line of the leat that powered the water wheel from the weir further upstream. It was built in 1759-60 to replace an earlier mill, further north and was intended to emphasise the wealth, taste and sophistication of the Duke - part of the landscape to be viewed from the House . Only a shell remains - the roof caved in when a tree fell on it in 1962.
