It is recorded that the town inhabitants used the Little London marsh area for mooring and mending their boats.... |

| The 80 ton 'hammerhead' crane |
| Giant cantilever cranes were born out of Britain's all-powerful shipbuilding industry in the early 20th century. They became essential structures for the fitting-out of ships in the age of iron and steam. The term 'hammerhead' is often applied to these cranes but, strictly speaking, it refers to the design of the German 'hammerkran' crane, a few of which were built for British shipyards at the start of the century. The British giant cantilever crane was of quite different design and ultimately more widely developed. |

| Yafford Watermill |
| Yafford Mill was established around the middle of the 18th century. It was a grist mill, grinding corn into animal feed for local farmers. It is thought to have started producing flour during the First World War, when water power was briefly supplemented by an oil engine. There is no record of how long flour production lasted and it may have reverted to animal feed after the war. It had certainly been grinding meal for many years prior to ceasing production around 1970. It eventually became the centre of a tourist attraction, occasionally turning as a museum feature. |
