Description
There is a reference to a mill from the Domesday Book. There is a field named Great Mill field on the Maldon Road in the west of the parish. This may have been the original site of the medieval mill. The field is close to Beavis Hall and Ulting Hall so may have belonged to the neighbouring parish or estate. Two mills are listed under the manor of Ulting in the Domesday Book.<1>
