Whitchurch Silk Mill

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Whitchurch Silk Mill is a watermill on the River Test, located in the town of Whitchurch, Hampshire, England. The mill was constructed around 1800 as a fulling mill (part of the finishing process of cloth weaving). Some years later, during the 1830s, operation of the mill was changed to weave silk.

The mill remains in operation, and the building is now owned by the Hampshire Buildings Preservation Trust and leased to a dedicated trust to ensure preservation.
