Loddon Mill
River Chet |
|
|
c.1946
|
|
Although Domesday
listed a mill at Loddon it would have almost certainly been on a different
site. Loddon watermill was sometimes known as Chedgrave mill and is one of the earliest recorded buildings in the town. |
 |
|
c.1900
|
|
When the mill was built it was found that the best position for the mill involved diverting the river Chet to the south of its natural course. This involved considerable effort and expense and it has been noted that in times of severe flood the river will attempt to flow via its original channel. The name Loddon translates as muddy river in the Celtic language. |

The great flood
that took place after torrential rain on 27th and 28th August 1912 devastated
the area around Loddon along with the rest of Norfolk. At about midnight
on the 27th a section of the roadway next to the mill was washed away and
part of the bridge caved in soon afterwards. The mill itself was in serious
danger of collapse as more and more of the road and bridge beside the mill
were washed away. A gang of 40 men worked to try and preserve as much of
the area around the mill's foundations as possible and succeeded in saving
the mill. |
|
Soon after
Woods, Sadd, Moore & Co. took over in the late 1880s they installed
a coal fired steam engine and a roller mill, although the stones remained
for grist grinding. At this time sacks of grain were carried on men's
shoulders from the four granaries on the north bank of the river. It was
soon realised that this method was far from ideal and so a worm conveyor
(auger) was installed, passing under the road to connect the mill with
the granaries. This required the construction of an elevator within the
mill building that in turn meant raising part of the roof at the north
end of the mill. The auger casing is clearly seen in photos of the 1912
floods that washed much of the road away. |
|
Woods, Sadd,
Moore & Co. used wherries for transporting various commodities along
the navigable section of the Chet and together with Case & Steward
(corn & seed merchants) were responsible for dredging the river to
improve navigation to the staithe. Woods, Sadd, Moore & Co. built
up a fleet of Norfolk wherries including the Benjamin, Orion, The Lowestoft
Trader and Ursa Minor. They also had three iron wherries, the Sirius,
Uranus and Vega. Their sails were removed after the first world war and
they were then towed by tugs. |
|
The wherries brought in a variety of products. Coal came in from Yarmouth and was graded before being sold in Loddon and the surrounding area for 1/- or 1/1d per cwt. |

In 1928 the mill was finally converted to electricity and used to husk trefoil, a type of clover that was brought in from Essex, Hertfordshire and Suffolk. The ground husks were quality inspected under a microscope to ensure the seed had not been chipped, otherwise it would not grow. The seeds were mainly exported to Germany where they were planted to produce animal feed and act as a legume crop to increase the Nitrogen content of the soil. Woods, Sadd, Moore & Co. became the largest red clover (trefoil) dehusking plant in the country. |

The mill carried on with grist and small scale flour production along with the dehusking of an annual crop of trefoil until 1968, when it was closed and sold by the Gilberts of Chedgrave Manor Estate. It's new owner decommissioned it but quickly agreed to reconnect the electricity supply and rent the mill out on a temporary basis when the new season's crop of trefoil suddenly arrived. |

LODDON MILL |
|
This is an old cornmill, distinctively
clad in white boarding standing over the River Chet in Loddon, ten miles
south of Norwich. Loddon has become a centre for boating enthusiasts and
is developing in popularity.
The mill consists of a four-storey wooden-clad building on four floors, with a slated roof and mill race below. It is offered as it stands, including all the original machinery and equipment. The brick boiler house at the rear is not included in the sale and is in separate ownership, as is the cottage to one side. The ground floor areas are approximately as follows: GROUND FLOOR Main room 48' x 20' plus two or three smaller rooms, w.c. FIRST FLOOR 30' 6" x 25' and 22' 8" x 14' average SECOND FLOOR 26' x 20' THIRD FLOOR 26' x 20' OUTSIDE A small triangular piece of land suitable for parking three or four cars N.B. A free public car park is immediately opposite. Planning consent has been obtained for restaurant use on two floors and for the retail sale of antiques from the property. Detailed drawings have not been made, the application for consent was in outline only. The price for the freehold with vacant possession is:- |

I was on holiday in the broads 12 years ago my friend
and I were looking round the mill, it was a wednesday morning, there was
a husband and wife working there and a man working up in the attics. I
was with my friend Lindsay and we were shown to the toilets next to the
restaurant (It was closed). The light bulb had gone in the ladies so we
were asked to use the gents, I turned my back to look at a picture (few
seconds) I turned round to see a man in grey trousers and a blue shirt
with the sleeves rolled up walking DOWN the stairs waving. I did not see
his face but remember smiling to myself. |
|
I grew up in the 1930's and 40's frequently visiting my grandparents at Chedgrave Lodge, my grandfather Richard Sutton who built it in 1900, became director of Wood Sadd Moore who owned the mill at that time. I often went with him to the mill, when he visited and to this day I can recall the character of the noise the sacks and smell, a dusty sweet smell, and the staircases going up and up, and the cats, kept there to catch the vermin. All our surpless kittens went to the mills. One old cat we had was taken to Lingwood mill, after months she turned up back at our house having walked back from Lingwood to Gorleston where we lived. My father Alec Sutton grew up at Chedgrave Lodge and by the 1940's was a director of Wood Sadd Moore. I believe my grandfather worked for Cannells the seed merchants in Chedgrave firstly. |
|
I am the great granddaughter of Alfred Woods of Loddon, Lowestoft and Beccles. I saw the Mill some years ago when it was a restaurant and was shown over the building. My father, Francis Maitland Woods was the son of William Maitland Woods, the son of Alfred. He was named after his uncle, Francis Cunningham Woods. |

O. S. Map 1884 Courtesy of NLS map images |
The above map clearly shows the river above the mill taking a sharp turn to the southeast before flowing in a straight line to the mill. Prior to this new cut being made, the river's course was basically east to west and the new mill was built to the south of the original watercourse. Both Faden's map of 1797 and Bryant's map of 1826 show the river flowing along its original course with no mill. |
