Description
Stoke Mill is a restaurant and storage building located on Mill Road in Stoke Holy Cross. It was originally built in 1776 as a flour water mill and later converted to a paper mill. The building was enlarged between 1814 and 1845 by Colmans, becoming their first mustard and blue mill. In 1962, it was stripped of its fittings and partially converted into a restaurant.
The structure features a brick ground floor with weatherboarded upper floors, topped with a roof of black glazed pantiles. The south front has four storeys and is divided into ten bays, with sash windows that include glazing bars. At the top floor, there is a large gabled lucam that is gabled back to the main roof, which is also gabled. The mill has no stacks. To the north, there is a two-storey outshut with ten bays, constructed in a similar style. Adjacent to the building are sluice gates and an inlet from the mill pond.
