As I find to my distraction when researching, Mill House is a popular
house name - being applied to both converted mill properties, and also to
(say) the millers house, or indeed to properties that had no historical
connection with a mill, except perhaps some proximity to a mill site.
In fact, according to the latest
Halifax house names survey, Mill House is the 37th most popular house
name in the UK (up from 47th in their last survey in 1998). Regional
analysis also noted a good number of names echoing the Industrial
Revoluton in Northern England, where The Mill joins Mill House in the
records. The survey is based on analysing the 2.5 million addresses that
The Halifax has mortgage records for.
