The metal machinery and axle from the old wooden water wheel on Cheriton Farm, dating from 1855, was brought to Granville Park and a replica water wheel was constructed.The Gingin Brook immediately below the town bridge had a weir built across it and a water race was installed to drive the constantly turning wheel.
