Rilla Mill

The Manor House Inn, Rilla Mill

Rilla Mill (Cornish: Melin Reslegh)[1] is a small settlement in Cornwall, England, part of the civil parish of Linkinhorne, some 1+1⁄2 miles to the west of Linkinhorne village.[2]

The New Bridge over the River Lynher at Rilla Mill replaced a medieval clapper bridge, which was demolished in the 1890s to make way for it.[3]
