Waterloo Corn mill is in the Upper Lydbrook area ( well away from the Viaduct in Lower Lydbrook)between the tramway and the main road going down to the river

Arthur and Edward Colliery also known as Waterloo was nearby.

A Thomas BURDOCK was the miller there from approx 1851 - 1906

you can infer where it was if you look at the northern boundary of Barnedge Hill woods you will see a straight edge almost north / south , I believe this is the approx western edge of the Mill pond feeding the corn mill.
