Description

This is a tower mill from the early 19th century, constructed of red brick. The mill has a tapering shape and features a corbelled out top. It is divided into four stages. The ground floor doorway has been altered to include a two-light window. The upper stages contain two four-light pivot windows and one blocked opening, all of which have brick segmental heads. The interior of the mill is not available for inspection.

Local climate

Mill sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 91% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 59% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
