Nendrum tide mill is a medieval tidal mill situated on the island of Mahee in Strangford Lough, County Down, in the Ards Peninsula of Northern Ireland. The mill dates to the early Christian period and represents an important example of early medieval industrial technology in Ireland, exploiting the significant tidal movements of Strangford Lough to power grain milling operations. The site comprises the physical remains of mill structures associated with the monastic settlement at Nendrum, which was founded in the fifth century and remained an active religious community for several centuries. The tide mill demonstrates the sophisticated engineering knowledge of early Christian monastic communities and their development of water-powered industrial processes in medieval Ireland.
