Description
Bradford Mill is an 18th-century timber-framed and weatherboarded mill, retaining its use. It occupies a picturesque position beside the River Blackwater. The mill is an irregular group of buildings. The south end features a gabled hoist loft above the first storey, and the windows are horizontal sliding sash windows with glazing bars. Casement windows are found on the east front. The roofs are tiled.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
