About us

The Old Mill was built in 1803 on the site of an early Norman castle. The Mill was originally used to grind chalk and in 1815 a barley Mill and Malt Kiln were added.

The building started life with six sails but these were removed in 1868 after one of the sails fell into the road. From 1868 the Old Mill was driven by a large gas engine from the town gas works and continued its working life until 1950.

In the summer of 1990, Dransfield Construction of Hull took steps to turn the now derelict Mill into a Pub and Restaurant. During construction and early Saxon burial ground was discovered. The artefacts found can now be viewed in the close by Baysgarth House Museum.

The Old Mill was then purchased by Marstons of Burton Upon Trent in December 1993.

Today it is a family run business selling Ales from Marstons and Beers, Wines & Spirits from around the World.

Very quirky large pub in the historic old Mill. Large free car park. Nice decor relaxing place for a drink. Good quality and selection of hand-pulled real ales. Friendly welcoming staff, nice quality home cooked food, a very popular pub.

Me and the fam had a lovely meal last night. One of the best steaks I have had in a long while, cooked to perfection. Eating steak out is always hit and miss and this was a huge hit. Lovely friendly atmosphere, great bar staff, and fast service although the place was heaving. Very impressed all round. Staff a credit to the owners. Highly recommend. We wont hesitate to go back.

Enjoyed a fab meal here last week, all washed down with a few decent pints of Shipyards. None of your microwaved ready meals here. Each meal seemed to have been made from scratch by a very competent chef. We all loved it.
