It is sad to see the demise of this once popular attraction. I remember visiting several times in the 1970s & 1980s. Chris Nunn the then owner was a real character & his collection of artefacts was fascinating. I am still using on a regular basis a teatowel I bought on one visit with pictures of the mill & interior. I intend to have a nostalgic walk up there in September, perhaps to take a few photos of what was once a magnificent sight on the Norfolk landscape. Such a shame when collections like this are split up.
