Cheddleton Flint Mill at Dusk

This photograph captures the rustic charm of Cheddleton Flint Mill, set against a vivid dusk sky in Staffordshire. The mill, complete with its iconic waterwheel, dates back to the 18th century and played a vital role in grinding flint for the pottery industry. Located along the tranquil River Churnet, which once powered its waterwheel, the mill’s surroundings reflect the evening light, underlining its connection with the natural landscape.

Cheddleton Flint Mill, now a museum, preserves its rich industrial history and celebrates the craftsmanship of the region. The site has been used for milling since the Middle Ages, though the current structures are primarily from the Industrial Revolution. The complex includes two mills: a late 18th-century purpose-built flint mill and a former corn mill adapted for grinding flint. Visitors can explore the miller’s cottage, flint kilns, a drying kiln, and outbuildings near the Caldon Canal, experiencing a tangible link to Staffordshire’s industrial heritage and local craftsmanship.
