        MILLS
        Isabel of Bradley held a water-mill in Bradley in the mid-14th century. (fn. 9) She was probably a member of the family which held the manor of Bradley, for the mill descended in the same way. (fn.10) Thus Thomas Godfrey held it in 1411,(fn.11) Henry Long at his death c. 1490,(fn.12) and Sir Walter Longin 1604.(fn.13) It was evidently separated from themanor in the 17th century, for in 1689 it was assured to John Greenhill the younger by Thomas Adams and others. (fn.14) Grace Greenhill held it in 1697,(fn.15) and another John Greenhill in 1724.
