THE co-owner of the historic Sproughton Mill has vowed to fight on despite being declared bankrupt.
Stephen Jones, who bought the mill seven years ago, has continued with his
website www.sproughtonwatermill.co.uk which launches a scathing attack on bureaucrats.

The 42-year-old, of Elm Estate, East Bergholt, has taken his battle to the Secretary of State and hopes for a decision in the new year, which will be published on the site.
