Granary And Former Ciderhouse About 15 Yards West Of New Mills Farmhouse

The granary and former ciderhouse, located about 15 yards west of New Mills Farmhouse, dates from around 1800. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and brick-filled timber-frame, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building has three bays oriented roughly north to south and consists of two levels. The east elevation features a sandstone plinth that extends to the upper floor level, above which are two rows of square framing with two openings. A ledged door on the left side has a head that projects into the framing. The north gable includes two flights of tallet stairs that rise southwards and then westwards to a central ledged door. Inside, there are collar trusses, with each collar supported by two posts that are tied back to the principals. The cider apparatus was no longer in place at the time of the last survey in July 1986. This building is included for its group value.
