Description
The building is a mill structure from the early to mid 19th century, now serving as industrial premises that are largely unoccupied. It is constructed of coursed squared stone and features a 20th-century sheet metal roof. The building has three storeys and a part basement, comprising 13 bays in total.
The doors are framed with plain stone surrounds, while the windows are six-pane, with the top part opening, and are adorned with stone lintels and projecting sills. Starting from the left, bays 1 to 3 each contain ground and first floor windows. Bays 4 and 5 feature a four-panel door with blank spaces above. Bays 6 and 7 include basement, ground, and first floor windows. Bay 8 has doors leading to the basement and ground floor, but is otherwise blind. Bays 9 to 11 have a later through-passage on the left, with a basement window to its right, along with ground and first floor windows, and a second-floor window for bays 10 and 11. Bay 12 has a blocked basement window, a ground floor window, a blocked first floor door, and a panelled double door leading to the second floor. Bay 13 has a blocked basement door and a window on each floor.
The right-hand corner of the building is chamfered on the ground floor, supported by a moulded corbel. The roof has been altered to a single pitch. The rear of the building features additions that are not of special interest. The right return of the building has two bays with a door on the ground floor to the right, with windows otherwise. This structure is part of a mill complex and is currently in a state of disrepair, noted during the time of resurvey. It is included for its group value.
