Description
Stone Mill is a house with an attached water-powered mill building, originating in the 17th century and enlarged in the mid-18th and 19th centuries. It is constructed from coursed rubble magnesian limestone and features a pantile roof. The two-storey, three-bay house is accompanied by a two-storey, three-bay mill under a lower roof on the left, with adjoining two-storey wings at the rear of both sections.
The house has a central doorway with a glazed door and overlight, set in a chamfered quoined surround with a raised lintel. On either side are 20th-century casement windows in altered quoins. The first floor features a square-faced surround for a single-light window above the door, along with linking two-light flat-faced mullioned windows, and an inserted casement window to the left of the central window. The roof has shaped kneelers, renewed gable copings, and end stacks with offset plinths and bands.
The mill building has a wide doorway on the right with an ashlar surround, flanked on the left by a small window with a square-faced surround and on the right by a casement window, with a door on the first floor above. A straight joint indicates that the end bay on the left, which covers a former wheel pit, is a later addition; it features external steps with a landing over an archway into the wheel pit and a segmentally-arched doorway above. The rear of the property has an altered two-storey wing to the house, which is adjoined on the right by a wing to the mill, likely from the 17th century but heightened. The right return of this wing is ashlar-faced, indicating the position of the former water wheel, and the watercourse has been altered to flow beneath the end of the mill.
Inside, there is a raised platform for two sets of stone in the left end of the building, and the main shaft of another wheel is located in the rear wing. The rear wall of the mill building encases a timber wall post, indicating a long history of mill development at this site.
