Opening and last night

Moor Mill became a pub in 1992. Whitbread bought it in 1998 and converted it to a Beefeater, keeping the waterwheels visible inside. By October 2026 it was trading as a Queensway pub. CAMRA ↗

Local record

History of this pub

Moor Mill is a converted watermill on the River Ver at Bricket Wood, on a site with mill links going back to the Domesday survey of 1086; the present Grade II listed building was rebuilt in 1762.

It stopped working as a mill in 1916, became a home, narrowly escaped demolition when the M25 was built close by in the 1980s, and opened as a pub in 1992 under Regent Inns.

Whitbread bought it in 1998 and made it a Beefeater, with a Travel Inn, later Premier Inn, built next door.

The waterwheels and much of the old machinery remain on show inside, and the riverside gardens and pond with ducks and geese made it a favourite with families.

After Whitbread closed its Beefeaters in 2026, CAMRA reports that Queensway Inns took it on.
