Mill Cottage

In the novel Dead Man's Folly, Mill Cottage is located by Mill Creek near Nassecombe. Alec and Sally Legge has rented the cottage from the Lawders for three months.

Nasse House is based on Agatha Christie's home Greenway but there is no equivalent building nearby that appears to have inspired Mill Cottage. However, on the other side of the river and nearer Dartmouth by Old Mill Creek there is an "Old Mill Cottage" at the head of the creek by a footbridge. It is possible that Agatha Christie drew inspiration from the local geography.
