Little Petherick Creek and Sea Mills

Trevorrick is a hamlet near St Issey in north Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is located about two miles south of Padstow just to the east of Little Petherick Creek. Half a km north is Sea Mills, a house on the banks of the creek. [1] Sea Mills was a grist mill in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It was powered by flood tidal water which then drove a water wheel when the tide was on the ebb. The sea walls can still be seen including the sluice gate but the wheel is long gone.[ citation needed ]

The River Roach is a river that flows entirely through the English county of Essex. It is one of four main streams that originate in the Rayleigh Hills to the west, and flow east. They then flow towards the centre of the Rochford Basin, a circular feature which may have been caused by an asteroid impact in the Late Oligocene or Early Miocene periods.
