Description
Tanlaw Mill (originally called the Town Mill), which occupies the site of an ancient mill mentioned in the Doomsday Book.
At the heart of the University of Buckingham's campus is the Tanlaw Mill (originally called the Town Mill), which occupies the site of an ancient mill mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Speed's map of 1610 indicates a mill on this site, as does Jeffery's map of 1770 where it is described as a fulling mill. By the late 19th century the mill was in the ownership of the Bucks Direct Dairy Supply Company, who also owned the Chandos Road Buildings and was used as a cornmill. In 1981 the University of Buckingham purchased and converted the building. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Buckingham. (B1).
