Cheddleton Flint Mill
Overview
Cheddleton Flint Mill is a fine example of a water mill built to grind flint for the pottery industry. The site features two water mills, a small museum, a period cottage, the canal and other exhibits. The Cheddleton Flint Mill Preservation Trust was formed in 1967 to preserve the unique mill complex and provide educational information concerning the historical development of pottery raw materials. In 1972 the Trust widened its objectives to encompass more of Britain’s Industrial Heritage and became the Cheddleton Flint Mill Industrial Heritage Trust.
