Description
Stockwith Mill is a water-powered corn mill with attached dwelling, dating to around 1800. The buildings form a rectangular main block approximately 20.4 metres long and 6 metres deep, oriented south-west to north-east, with the mill at the south-west end and the house to the north-east, connected by a narrow linking bay. A wing extends north-west to the rear of the house, creating an L-shaped plan. Single-storey lean-to extensions are present to the rear of both the north-west wing and the house.
The exterior walls are constructed of red brick laid in English Garden Wall Bond, beneath a pitched clay pantile roof dating to the 21st century. The buildings are two storeys with gable ends to the north-east, south-west and north-west. The mill's roof ridge is slightly higher than that covering the house and linking bay. Brick segmental arches form the heads of doors and windows throughout. Windows are a mix of timber and uPVC casements, with examples from the mid-20th century and later insertions. Three brick chimney stacks stand in the gable end walls of the mill house, though the south-western stack is concealed by the linking bay.
The south-east facing front elevation shows the mill at the south-west end with a single window to each storey (a double casement at ground floor, single casement above), and a wide off-centre doorway. The linking section has a ground-floor door and windows at both storeys, all 20th-century insertions. The house comprises three bays with a central ground-floor doorway flanked by triple casement windows, and three two-casement windows at first-floor level. The south-west gable hosts the water wheel in a brick housing, positioned directly in the River Lymn with a single first-floor casement window as the only opening. The water wheel features an iron centre and rim with timber spokes. River flow is controlled by a sluice to the west of the wheel. Downstream, the river passes beneath a footbridge and widens into a pool to the south.
The rear north-west elevation of the mill includes a ground-floor window, with the linking section solid. The rear wing has windows at first-floor level and is largely enclosed by a single-storey lean-to at ground level. The north-east gable is mostly solid save for a ground-floor window north of the chimney.
The interior has not been inspected, but documentary sources indicate the mill contains a first floor with a pitwheel, shafts, hoists and pulleys positioned to function when operational. The house has undergone recent refurbishment and retains limited historic features, though some original internal doors survive. The sitting room has a red and black quarry tile floor, and ground-floor bedrooms retain fireplaces and surrounds that may date to around 1800.
