Tyle Mill is a mill on the River Kennet near Sulhamstead, Berkshire. The mill originally produced flour; a fire in 1914 burned down the buildings and the rebuilt mill became a sawmill. [1] In 1936 it was acquired by George Clemens Usher, director of Abedare Cables of South Africa Limited, and became a private house which was owned by him for decades.[2][3][1]

Tyle Mill Lock on the Kennet Navigation is near the mill.
