To eliminate a vertically asymmetrical deflection, a rolling mill comprises a device for measuring horizontal deflections of upper and lower work rolls 2, 3 during rolling, a device for comparing values measured on the upper and lower sides and calculating the difference therebetween, and a horizontal deflection controller four determining whether the difference exceeds a predetermined range or not and imparting a horizontal bending to at least one of the work rolls. To eliminate a transversely asymmetrical deflection, a rolling mill comprises a device for measuring horizontal deflections of at least one of the work rolls at axially spaced positions during rolling, a device for comparing values measured on at the axially spaced positions and calculating the difference therebetween, and a horizontal deflection controller for determining whether the difference exceeds a predetermined range or not and imparting a horizontal bending to the one work roll at least one of the axially spaced positions. This prevents an adverse effect by the work rolls being horizontally deflected in a vertically or transversely asymmetrical way, reduces the diameter of the work rolls, and increases the allowable rolling load. Stable rolling of high-quality strips with good shape or flatness is thus achieved.
