Summary
[edit]DescriptionCogglesford Watermill - External View - geograph.org.uk - 2169738.jpg |
English: Cogglesford Watermill - External View, near to Sleaford, Lincolnshire, Great Britain.
This little watermill, now run by a trust is the last working watermill in Lincolnshire (lots more windmills). There has been a mill here on the river Slea since Anglo Saxon times, the Anglo Saxon one would have been alot simpler and probably used a turbine roman like mechanism. This example was one of 18 noted to be on the Slea when the doomsday book (Norman) was written in 1086. Later in medieval times under the feual system peasants made up most of the population. Some 90% of medieval folk lived on the land. The local landlord owned the mill and charged a toll, through time the word Sheriff (old Anglo Saxon and Norman, Reeve meaning a high up man working for the Lord and Shire meaning the local area) has been used to describe this, now the mill is the oldest and only Sheriff mill left. |
