Main Mill buildings 2015

Botley Flour Mill is first recorded in the Doomsday Book of 1086. At that time it was owned by Ralph de Mortimer a French nobleman prior to 1066 the Mill is referenced in the Doomsday Book as of pre Saxon origins.

The last wheels being fitted in 1870 The milling continued until 1993.The site is now a site of many small shops much of the workings remain some of the main buildings are in poor repair with the rear roof covered with sheeting.The advantage of the shopping centre at the mill is you can explore the mill (while looking at the shops or not).

  1. Lovely to see the mill again, we lived in Botley in the early 1980’s, lovely place to live. Like the new blog. Happy New Year and looking forward to your photos of Scotland 🙂
