- In Mr Brutons farm at "Mill Farm" there is the remains of an old Mill. The people of the surrounding place always came to get their flour made. Around the mill was a big pond in which the people caught wild duck. The pond is now filled up and the place where it was is now a hollow. There is a lane leading from the public road up to the mill. One day a man was going up the lane with a horse, the horse was thrown into the ditch. At the sport there is a cross shaped out on the ground with stone.
