Swan on the Millpond...


The image, shot during early evening, shows a Mute swan on the Millpond at Throop. A Mill has been on this site for at least 921 years, as it is mentioned in the Doomsday Book, and at the time was valued at 14/6d. The current form of the Mill dates from 1890, but has not been in use for many years. It is one of the remaining 100 or so Mills that once operated on the Dorset Stour.
