Description

Mill House is a tower mill that has been converted into a house. It dates from the mid-18th century and originally had three storeys, but was reduced to two storeys in 1815, after which two additional storeys were added. The building is constructed of brick and has a circular shape with a noticeable batter at the third floor. A late 20th-century bungalow is attached to the south side of the mill. Each floor features 20th-century casement windows facing the cardinal points. There is a saw-toothed cornice below a 20th-century crenellated parapet. Above the upper windows, tie plates are visible, displaying the letters and numerals "JD 1815," which refer to John Dobbs.

Local climate

Mill House sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 88% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 66% 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.
