It is being developed into a nature reserve, has a footpath running through it and a couple of benches should you want to take a picnic down there or just sit and enjoy the countryside all around you. The area is left as natural as possible with trees and wild flowers. There are picnic benches.

Beautiful Mill with the river flowing down towards Thorney. As you look towards Thorney bridge, you can see the large turning area where the boats carrying their goods would turnabout
