Combe Mill, Combe, Oxfordshire

This sawmill, used for cutting timber, was built in 1852. It is on the Blenheim Estate. It still has a complete and working set of machinery. It is a rare survival of importance in a national context. It is also of interest as an originally dual powered mill whereby water or steam power could be used depending on the water supply.
