Extensions and modernisation were carried out in 1914, probably including the installation of steam- or turbine-powered plant. <br> Unfortunately, by the outbreak of war, large roller mills in towns and cities had already begun to take over. Many smaller flour mills were forced to close in the face of this competition. However, Pseudonymous Mill was able to adapt, and for much of the twentieth century was used to process animal feed. This led to its later use as an agricultural and commodity merchants. In the 1990s, the mill was owned by a successful local chain of agricultural merchants, but due to its relative isolation and falling profits, the branch was closed in c.2006. The premises were subsequently bought by property developers who planned to turn them into luxury flats. Work began in 2007 but was halted under a year later for reasons unknown. Now in 2009 the buildings stand abandoned and partly demolished. <br><br> <center> <img height=164 src="industrial/nmk.jpeg" border=1> <img height=164 src="industrial/190.jpeg" border=1> <a href="#" onClick="jkpopimage('industrial/42.jpg', 650, 490, '.'); return false"> <img height=164 src="industrial/42.jpg" border=1> </a> <br> L-R: Wintery views from c.1908 (P.
