Description
The building is a late 18th century brick tower mill, now used as a transmitter station, located on Hilderstone Road in Meir Heath. Only the tower of the original structure remains, which consists of three storeys. The ground storey features one doorway and two circular window openings that are now blocked. The upper storey has a similar window and a door, likely added later. The top of the tower is finished with a cement-coped parapet and is topped by a tall radio mast.
