River Cong (Norfolk) : ウィキペディア英語版
River Cong (Norfolk)

The River Cong is in the west of the county of Norfolk.〔Ordnance Survey (2002). ''OS Explorer Map 250 - Norfolk Coast West''. ISBN 0-319-21886-4.〕 It is a tributary of the River Babingley. The spring rises in a meadow pool on the Hillington side of Manor Farm, Congham. From there, the river flows through the wood and over a small waterfall, where in the past it powered all the machinery within the Congham Oil Mill (), which is now known as Congham Lodge.
==Congham Oil Mill==
The mill is said to have been built for processing whales. Whales were transported from King's Lynn docks by horse and wagon. The mill produced oil from whale blubber. The resultant whale bones were then taken by road to Narborough Bone Mill where they were ground into fertiliser. Some of the whale bones remain as ornaments at Congham Lodge to this day. The waterfall that drove the mill still remains. There would have been a horrendous smell especially in the summer, which was why the mill was situated away from King's Lynn itself. The Cong then flows on under the A148 and joins the Babingley close by the Gatton Waters caravan site.
