Little Cressingham Mill is on a Domesday site, as 2 mills were listed in the parish at that time. This was one of only two mills in Norfolk that were powered by both water and wind, the other being Burnham Overy Union mill. Rebuilt in 1821 and despite its dual power source, this was only a small mill. The watermill was a single storey brick building with a slate roof that housed two pairs of stones driven by an iron breast-shot water wheel, 12 feet in diameter and 6 feet wide . The windmill was a six storey tower mill that housed an additional two pairs of stones.
