Haxted Watermill, 17th-century watermill in Dormansland, England

Haxted Watermill stands beside the River Eden with a large overshot waterwheel measuring 10 feet in diameter and 9 feet in width.

The mill's western section was constructed in 1680 on foundations from 1361, while the eastern part was added in 1797 and operated until 1945.

The Stanford family managed this agricultural center for two centuries, maintaining local farming traditions through grain processing services.

The structure earned Grade II listed status in 1958, receiving protection and recognition under the National Heritage List for England designation 1029920.

During renovations, workers discovered a bearing stone from a 14th-century undershot waterwheel beneath the current mechanical system.
