Property History - The current owners have occupied the property since its first renovation in 1989, from an old disused dairy mill.

The Old Mill dates back to the 1720s as an old corn mill, but is more widely known as the ‘Old Staffordshire Dairy’.

A water wheel and later, a large cheese VAT for the 'curdling process' was located where the Orangery and Two-Storey Extension are now built.

The extension was not part of the original renovation, but was later added using specified materials regulated by the local planning department, to ensure in keeping with the building character and original structure of the mill.

The whole building project was carried out by Kirk Shenton and received various accolades and restoration awards in the 1990’s. The initials 'KS' are engraved in the brick in the cottages across from the Mill.

The current owners have also retained additional materials as back-ups for any replacements, these include; Staffordshire Blue Tiles, Heat Resistant Floor Tiles and additional Bathroom/Kitchen tiles.
