  • Charney Bassett Water Mill
    Vale and Downland Museum – Local History Series Charney Bassett Water Mill by Daphne Jones Charney Bassett being one of the villages on the River Ock has had a watermill since the 12th century, but apart from a mention in the 16th century, little is known of its past history. For some time the Manor had been part of the Pusey Estates which, on being sold in 1909 to Berkshire County Council, was divided into smallholdings, the Mill with its attached cottage and land being one. The present building on the site near the church dates from the 19th century but the Mill has not been used since about 1915. Charney Bassett - c1890 - The Mill, view of rear, with mill pond, 4 adults 1 child. (v-cha003) The building deteriorated over the years, but the machinery remained intact, with the exception of the Breastshot waterwheel which most likely went for scrap. In 1974 Oxfordshire County Council took over the administration of the Estates and was interested in restoring the Mill as a Museum. A survey was done, money allocated and essential repairs carried out including treatment for woodworm. With the Council cutbacks late in 1976 the money was withdrawn and it looked as if the Mill would have to wait for its restoration. 1 In 1975 the then Wantage Industrial Archaeology Group (now Vale of White Horse I.A.G.) was started following an Evening Class course. We meet once a month having a varied programme of speakers, films, members’ evenings and outings. There is much to interest us in local industries and associated subjects in an essentially agricultural area.
