Carew Tidal Mill, Tidal mill in Carew, Wales.
The mill features two 4.8-meter water wheels with wooden bucket paddles that operate through a system of sluices under the structure.
Built in 1801 near Carew Castle, this Grade II listed building replaced an earlier mill from 1541 and operated until its closure in 1937.
The mill complex includes an 11th-century Celtic cross and stands near a medieval bridge, representing Welsh agricultural and engineering traditions.
The site offers a mile-long circular path around the 23-acre millpond, making it accessible for visitors with wheelchairs and strollers.
This restored facility remains the only functioning tidal mill in Wales, using water power from rising and falling tides to grind grain.
