Description

The Corn Mill, a Grade II listed building, is a mid-19th century mill and bakehouse that is now disused. It features coursed rubble and brick construction with a plain tile roof and an L-shaped plan. The building is two stories high and has a two-window range. The windows include three-light oak mullion and transom designs under stone lintels and drip courses. The right side has a gabled porch bay with a chamfered arch and a shouldered hood, leading to an ornamented two-leaf stable door. To the left, there is a two-light mullion and transom window with lattice leaded lights, and in the gable, there are two metal lattice lights under brick segmental arches, with an opening above under an oak lintel.

The lower two-story wing on the left has two two-light mullion windows under stone lintels and drip courses, with battened plank doors; the right door has a rounded head under a stone segmental arch. There is also an arch over the race with a fixed light. On the far left, a two-light casement window with metal lattice glazing is present. The left side features a two-light mullion window and a hoist door under stone lintels and drip courses, with a blind opening above that has a drip course and figurehead. The ground floor has a three-light mullion and transom window with lattice glazing.

The right side has a shuttered opening under a wood hood in the gable, and there is an open-fronted wagon shed that ties to the rubble building, which is now roofless but retains stone lintels and mullions. Although the mill wheel is missing, the building contains much original machinery. The race has brick entry arches and stone tail arches, and it retains some sluice machinery. The Corn Mill forms a group with the nearby Sawmill, Bridge over the Teme, and Weir.
