Which one - 3 at least sping to mind

Lydbrook Mill down towards the Wye , or Waterloo Mill or the Corn Mill on Worrall Hill ?

Cyril Hart's book on the Industrial History of Dean gives the
following:

p 372 'Two corn mills (one being 'Gabb's Grist Mill') operated in Lower
Lydbrook in 1622-3...'

p 374 'On the Lyd Brook: Upper Lydbrook and Lower Lydbrook Mill. Both
corn mills were undershot types. '
