Description
Mill House is an 18th-century house situated on the north side of Hazeleigh Burnham Road. The house is timber-framed with roughcast rendering and weatherboarding, and has a roof of handmade red clay tiles. Originally it comprised three bays facing southeast, with a central stack forming a lobby entrance. A two-bay extension was added to the right, followed by a single-storey extension around 1950. A two-storey flat-roofed extension exists to the rear, along with a single-storey lean-to extension located in the rear left angle, both dating to the 20th century.
The building is one storey high with attics. It has four 20th-century casement windows, and four more in hipped dormers. The front features a plain boarded door set within a 20th-century hipped porch. The roof is gambrel-shaped and half-hipped at both ends. The left elevation, facing Burnham Road, has two 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor and one on the first floor.
Interior features include chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue stops, and joists of a vertically sectioned design. There are two large wood-burning hearths which have been reduced to accommodate coal grates. The house was formerly associated with a post mill which stood immediately to the north, first documented around 1724. In 1779 the mill contained a timber-framed and thatched roundhouse, two sets of stones, a flour dresser, and an adjoining horse mill. The post mill was destroyed by a storm in 1892.
