Hiking
Cheddleton Flint Mill is a splendid example of a watermill that ground flint for the local pottery industry. It was built sometime around 1760, possibly under the stewardship of the great canal engineer James Brindley.
Today, the mill has been fully restored to working order, is Grade II-listed and makes for a fascinating visit. It houses a small museum that offers education to schools and a wealth of information for visitors.
