River Beane
The River Beane is a short river in the county of Hertfordshire, England. A tributary of the River Lea, it rises to the south-west of Sandon in the hills northeast of Stevenage and joins the Lea at Hartham Common in Hertford. ==Watermills== In medieval times there were a number of watermills in the Beane valley. Sele Mill, upstream of Hertford, was mentioned in the Domesday Book.〔(SELE HOUSE including front railings (1268844) )〕 Its main claim to fame is that it was temporarily converted for use as a paper mill and was, as far as is known, the earliest paper mill in England. It is not clear when paper production began there, although 1488 has been suggested,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Sele Mill )〕 but it was certainly underway in the 1490s. Paper from Sele Mill was used in publications from that decade, and the mill was visited by Henry VII. Despite this sign of royal favour, it did not stay in production for long.〔Richard L.
