Description
Windmill House is a former miller's house built around 1830. It is constructed of brick and features a black pantile roof. The building has two storeys and a symmetrical three-bay facade, which includes sash windows with glazing bars set beneath skewback arches. The entrance consists of a two-leaf panelled front door topped by a rectangular fanlight with glazing bars that create geometric patterns. The doorcase is roll-moulded and includes corner paterae. Additional architectural details include a plain platband, wide eaves, a hipped roof, and end stacks.
