Description
Kinderton Mill is a water-powered corn mill, now used as a workshop, built in 1609 and altered over time. It features stone-dressed English bond brown brickwork and a grey slate roof. The building stands three storeys tall, with a two-storey, three-window wing to the left, likely dating from the late 18th century, and a front outshut at the left-centre, probably from the mid-19th century. The 17th-century frontage includes a projecting cross-wing with heavy buttresses at the front, flush quoins, and a stone-coped gable topped with ball finials. There are recessed chamfered stone-mullioned windows, with one window per storey: the lower window has three lights, the middle one has four lights, and the upper one has three lights.
Inside, there is a stone inscribed with the year 1609, likely relocated, and the well of the former millwheel shows rim-scratches on the right wall. The left wing has reused oak purlins supported on queen post trusses, probably from the 18th century. The mill originally had two internal wheels, but no machinery remains; however, the penstock to the right wheel-chamber is still visible.
