Eling Tide Mill
2013-04-21
Eling Creek is situated at the head of Southampton Water, where you can see tidal power used to mill flour on a daily basis. Just over the road from the Mill is the Totton & Eling Heritage Centre, which shows the history of the area from Bronze Age days to the present day. You can even sit in an air raid shelter and experience the sound of bombs dropping all around you. All around the area are interesting historical and ecological walks with views over the water and there is a new pirate play ship in the picnic area.
