Kingsbury Watermill, Grade II listed watermill in St Albans, England.

The three-story timber and brick structure stands along the River Ver, featuring a functional low breastshot waterwheel and preserved milling equipment inside.

Records from 1568 document the watermill's transfer to Sir Nicholas Bacon, marking centuries of agricultural production before its transformation in the 1970s.

The building maintains its industrial heritage while operating as a restaurant, incorporating original millstones and machinery into the dining environment.

Located on St Michael's Street near the A414 road, the restaurant welcomes visitors from 8:30 to 18:00 Sunday through Wednesday, extending to 20:00 Thursday to Saturday.

The restaurant produces Belgian waffles using flour from nearby Redbournbury Mill, connecting past milling traditions with modern food preparation methods.
