A fascinating ruin of this mill which is hidden for much of the year. If the water level is low (usually in winter) you can see the bridge and there is an information board nearby if you want to know more during your run.

Thil Castle is not open at the moment, but it is still a sight to enjoy while strolling around. Although in ruins, it remains impressive.
