House Mill

The original tidal mills at this site date back to the Domesday book of 1086, and the present structure of the House Mill was built in 1776 by Daniel Bisson.

[2] It is one of only four Grade I listed buildings[3] in the London Borough of Newham.

The south facade of the House Mill displays a coat of arms dated 1776 and the initials "D S B" (which could be Daniel and Sarah Bisson), with forty cast iron wall plates which tie the ends of the floor beams.

The Miller's House was rebuilt in 1995 with a modern interior, but retaining the original facade.

A Second World War bomb landed on a nearby bonded warehouse and damaged both houses on 15 October 1940 which were later demolished.
