You can see the building from the gardens but it doesn't look like a mill from that perspective. It is not on the main river, the monks built a spur off the river to service the mill. This is a link to a walk along the river to the mill. This mill appears at 19.41 minutes in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GH-P2tP8JTs It would be lovely if the other mill on this walk was saved and restored.

There are some lovely buildings and some good walking trail leaflets to point out various historical features. I am thinking of getting a rail card that can get me a third off ticket prices. Then I can venture further afield than I am happy with driving on my own. It is well worth a visit.
