Farm Buildings Including Mill Office At Hyde Mill

A complex of late 19th-century farm buildings including a mill office, with minor 20th-century alterations. The buildings are constructed of brick and weatherboarding, with slated roof coverings. The layout is a rectangular courtyard, situated south of the mill and farmhouse. The Mill Office is positioned in the north-west corner, featuring an integral carriage shed and a wall connecting to a mill race arch. Behind the office is a single-storey stable range with pig sties, the pig sties in four bays at the north end, incorporating a timber screen wall to the yard with brick pens featuring arched openings and brick dividing walls. Above the pens is a storage floor with a slatted screen extending to the ridge. The front of the stables continues in an arcade, with boarded walls and split doors, including an open bay in the centre of the range. A return range of brick extends west and then north, connecting to the barn and grain store.

The L-shaped barn and grain store is single-storey with lofts, with a wide, full-height double doorway on the west elevation, beneath a segmental arch. The return wall to the left has two ground-floor windows. A blind gable at the south end forms the north side of the access into the yard. The north elevation faces northwest and flanks the mill entrance drive, featuring a central doorway flanked by shallow arch-headed openings set immediately above door heads at eaves level, with four high-level windows of 4X3 panes on either side. The east elevation fronts the road with three arch-headed double doors providing roadside loading facilities.

These farm buildings were designed to complement the adjacent mill complex, providing extensive stabling for working horses, grain storage and processing facilities, and roadside loading/unloading capabilities. The farm buildings, mill office, attached wall, and mill race arch are considered to have group value with Hyde Mill, its attached granary and store, the sluice gate, and Hyde Mill Farmhouse.
