Description
Dudgeley Mill is a former corn mill located in Church Stretton, built around 1700 on an earlier site known as "The Mill of Botvyle." It has been combined with a mill house and is now a single residence. The building features painted brick with a storey band, and the rear is partly rendered. The roofs are covered with plain tiles and have corbelled eaves, with some parts hipped. The mill house wing has a dentil course at the eaves and a partly projecting gable end stack. The main structure has a rectangular plan with end and rear extensions.
The exterior consists of two storeys, with a single storey and attic. The front displays former sack doors on both floors, which are partly brick blocked, with the upper door featuring a gabled hood. There are later small wooden casements in brick segmental arched openings, and a brick storey band. To the left is a 20th-century gabled end extension. The mill house to the right includes a 20th-century timber casement, a plain doorway, and large projecting hipped attic dormers. The rear has been altered with 20th-century flat-roofed extensions.
Inside, the mill retains a closely-housed iron overshot wheel, although most of the machinery has been replaced with 20th-century installations.
