Clapton Mill is a former watermill located in the hamlet of Clapton, West Crewkerne, Somerset, England. The existing mill dates back to the 18th century, but was extensively rebuilt in 1864. An earlier mill has existed on the same site since the 13th century.[1][2] The mill, along with its aqueduct, has been Grade II* Listed since 1987, primarily for the surviving machinery which dates back to the 19th century rebuild.[3]
