This mixed media depicts Lily Greet Mill on Station Rd in Southwell in its former times. The River Greet runs alongside and sometimes floods bursting its banks into nearby fields as in this painting. The mill stands on the site of Southwell’s mediaeval Burgage mill. Charles Caudwell, whose family originated from Derbyshire, bought the mill in 1851 and made changes to the mill’s capacity. Wheat was transported to the mill by road, rail and water. Local corn arrived by horse and cart, supplies from further afield came from the R.Trent by barge to a wharf at Fiskerton which is still there. The mill suffered serious fires on three occasions in 1867, 1893 and 1917. On each occasion the opportunity was taken to modernise the plant ... Local bakers took their supply of flour from the mill, best known was ‘Mosedale’s’ Bakery and Caudwell’s ‘Greet Lily Flour’ won the Nottinghamshire’s Bakers Cup in 1907, 1908, 1909, 1912 and 1914. The mill was taken over by Associated British Foods, who closed it in 1977 and in 1989 the mill was converted into residential apartments….
