Geocache Description:

PLEASE BEWARE OF THE MUGGLES AS CACHE IS CLOSE TO HOUSES.

In the early 16th century there were two post mills in stock, one sited at the entrance to the present bowling green near the Baker's Arms Pub ( previously known as The Jolly Miller). The other mill was in the field (then part of the much larger common) near where the present mill stands. In 1788 William Moss purchased the old post mill and decided to have a brick tower mill constructed which
was completed in 1816, which is the current mill you see today. The two post mills were demolished between 1870 and 1898.

The mill is open to the public from April to September from 2pm till 5pm on the 2nd Sunday of each month. As well as the national mill weekend in May of each year. For further infomation see www.stock.org.uk
