UK and Europe Roadtrip - Raleigh

We came to see Rayleigh Mount, once the site of a medieval wooden castle that was used in the defence of London, but there is really nothing there now to see. Instead we had a look at the Rayleigh Mill erected around 1800 on the outer bailey of Castle Mount. Flemish weavers fled Holland to this area and brought their skills with them. Select the photo below to see the old mill stone that was used back then.
