Which Fisherton Mill was Mill Road named after?
As I said, I believe that Mill Road is probably named after the older Fisherton Mill. There are two reasons for this: • The chronology – this isn’t conclusive, but given that the road was called Mill Road ‘subsequently’ to 1860 and Main’s Mill wasn’t built until 1880, it seems more likely to have been named after the original mill • The location – the original Fisherton Mill was more or less at the end of Mill Road.
