This article published on 18th Jan 2003, relates the story of
generations of millers at Mildenham Mill.
It starts with the last miller, Denis Watts, who retired in 1972, going
back to his maternal grandfather, Henry Bill, miller in 1870. Other mills
that the family worked include Belbroughton near Kidderminster,
Rindleford Mill at Bridgnorth, and Porters Mill near Fernhill Heath.
There is also a link with the Danzey Green windmill at Avoncroft, where
Max Sinclair was miller from 1980-1995, since he was part of the team
who restored Mildenham Mill in the 1960s.
