Description

Barnack Water Mill is an 18th-century watermill constructed of coursed stone, featuring a steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof with gabled ends. The building is a long, two-storey range with dressed stone window and door openings that have keyblocked lintels. There are single-storey additions at each end of the mill. Currently, no machinery remains, and the undershot wheel is silted up.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
