This was Banbury Mill, a flour mill run by Edmunds and Kench Ltd. They purchased the mill in 1884. It was extended over time and had a 5-sack per hour roller plant. In 1954 it was sold to E J Coombe of Thorverton, Devon. This company ran a roller flour mill on the river Exe and had merged with Hamlin and Son, who had another set of roller mills, upstream at Tiverton. [Sources include Banbury Guardian 5-8-1954 p 5] |
