Description
Mildenham Mill is a corn mill built in the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and restored around 1965. The structure is made of brick and features a slate roof. It stands three storeys high with a dentilled eaves cornice and has four bays, with all door and window openings having cambered heads.
On the west elevation, there is a varied arrangement of windows, including two ground floor metal-barred casements and a narrow light. The first floor has two casements, one of which is also metal-barred, along with a central stable door and a hoist door above it. A tall, gabled projection with bargeboards and a finial extends from the roof to the left of the centre, housing the hoisting equipment. Each gable end features three round-headed archways, within which there is an undershot wheel with elm paddles and iron rims that drives four pairs of French burr millstones.
Inside, the roof consists of trenched, double purlins and three intermediate, interrupted tie-beam trusses. The mill's machinery is complete and fully operational, and it contains a full set of tools and equipment, including a bolter for separating bran from flour. Mildenham Mill has its own private wharf on the Droitwich Junction canal, located about 100 yards to the south, and it was last used for grinding corn in 1947. The mill is particularly noteworthy as a complete, working example of its type.
