Steeped in history, Bill Mills is a hamlet with roots stretching back to the Domesday Book. First mentioned in 1362 as 'Bulimulle', and later referenced in 1367 when Nicholas le Castell generously granted his lands here to the Rector of Mitcheldean, this is a place where history runs deep. In more recent centuries, Bill Mills earned its name operating as a busy paper mill through the 17th and 18th centuries, before serving as a corn mill and even bottling Guinness and mineral water in its industrial heyday.

Just ten dwellings make up the hamlet, quietly nestled in the Castle Brook valley, southwest of Pontshill, surrounded by rolling farmland and ancient woodland. Life here feels timeless, yet welcoming.
