Tidal Mill, Carew.

            Tidal Mill, Carew.
History does not tell exactly how long a mill has existed at Carew however there is documented evidence that suggests that a Mill was in existence at the site from as early as 1542.
For the sum of ten sovereigns per annum according to records the mill was leased to John Bartlett in 1558.
During the intervening years the mill was rebuilt and the current mill most likely dates from the early 19th century and it contains two Mill wheels one of which is dated 1801.
This timeframe would coincide with the late 18th century revival of the agricultural industry which saw the Mill being used on a continual basis.
Perhaps it was in reference to the French burr stones which accounts for the Mill being referred to as the ‘French Mill’.
The Mill was used continually until 1937 when it ceased operations and as a result it lay dormant until the early 1970’s.
A complete renovation of the Mill was undertaken and was completed in 1972 by the Carew Estate which was aided by funds from the Historical Buildings Council of Wales.
