Uckfield & District Preservation Society
A huge amount of time and effort has been poured into the restoration of Nutley Mill by
our Mill Group, beginning in 1968, the year
our society was founded.
our Mill Group, beginning in 1968, the year
our society was founded.
Whole families have become involved for many years both at the Mill and at Bridge Cottage, spreading their interest in our old buildings and winning new support from those recognising the value of their achievements.
We often find old pieces of equipment and have recently repaired a hand operated sack hoist to lift sacks onto carts.
A horse gin was given to the society needing considerable restoration. We are having parts renewed and hope to display it soon.
One improvement made in 2005 was the construction of a parking area to allow disabled access to the mill site.
The mill’s history has been traced back to 1836 although the main-post dates from between 1533 and 1565.
The restoration work started in 1968 with the enthusiasm of Tony Turner, the founder of this Society.
