"In 1336, as mentioned in a charter, the Monks of Jumieges are permitted to build two mills. It is probably at that time that the the river reach, the "bief" was digged and the mill constructed rue du Moulin. In 1720, it is mentioned as a "wheat mill".

The second mill, initially a tan mill, was constructed where the above one is, and is mentioned on the ►map of 1779 along the "chemin de Livarot".
