Just when we thought there were no more historic pictures of the bone mill, Jan Foster-Bartlett discovered a new unseen picture along with several of the river and Maltings on the Mid Norfolk Picture Archive. Thanks to Phyl Edees for the original pictures, John Filowiat for sharing and Jan for finding them.

The first picture of the mill is a zoomed in version of the second picture showing the dis-used mill. These are followed by Lighters and horses at The Maltings, a lighter along the river, and the river near the village.

The 2017 painting of the mill building by Roy Didwell is a clever mix of the old mill and water wheel, with the current railway wagon, bench seat and table. Everyone involved with the mill has a copy and one is on display in the visitor centre.

We were given the painting of the old water wheel at Mills Weekend 2026 by Annie Bird, the artist is Brian Woods of Fakenham. The painting is off site at the moment while being framed, but will be on display soon.
