Work is progressing on Norfolk's only remaining working watermill that produces flour after it broke down earlier this year.

The 222-year-old grade II listed Letheringsett Mill, near Holt, stopped turning after teeth on its wheel broke.

Since then, the owners of the mill, Michelle Thurlow and David Gay, have been working to get the mill back up and running, setting up a fundraising campaign and planning repairs with local businesses.

Ms Thurlow said: "We have gone over our target and raised £13,000 in total.

"We are now in stage three, which involves actually replacing the teeth, which is the most time-consuming and difficult part because each of the teeth are unique, as are the castings they fit into.

"We have 163 wooden teeth to replace, so far eight have been fitted to the great spur wheel.

"Hopefully, we will be up and running before Christmas.

"People have been absolutely amazing. 

"We have started a restoration fund now because we don't know how much everything will cost when we take the shaft out. 

"Any leftover money will go to future repairs."
