Description
Pontynys Mill is a disused watermill dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed from coursed rubble stone and features a roof made of Welsh slate and corrugated sheet. The building has an L-shaped plan, with a wing that projects forward on the right side. It stands two storeys tall with an attic.
The facing gable includes a stable door on both the ground and first floors to the left, along with a single-light casement window on each floor. The left return also has a similar casement on both floors, as well as a door on each floor of the main range. There is an extension with boarded windows at the left end of the building. At the rear, there is a large iron and wood high-breast water wheel.
Inside, the mill is reputed to contain an elaborate gearing arrangement with four pairs of French burr stones. It is believed to have been operational until 1939.
