Mendham Mill

Mendham Mill is a house with an adjoining former watermill, built in 1807. The watermill was largely gutted and converted to residential use between 1937 and 1938. The house is of three storeys and has a rendered brick facade with a modern textured finish, and a roof of glazed black pantiles. It has two bays by one bay, featuring inset sash windows with glazing bars. An internal brick stack is present.

The mill itself is timber-framed and weatherboarded, also with a modern textured finish and a glazed black tile roof. It is of three storeys, with a projecting lucam (small dormer window) over a gable on the right side. It has six small-paned sash windows and a plank front door. A 20th-century doorway on the first floor is accessed by an external wooden staircase. Inside the mill, there is a cast iron breast-shot waterwheel, manufactured by Knights of Harleston, along with a cast iron wheelshaft and pitwheel. The waterwheel was last used to generate electricity. To the left of the mill is a two-storey granary with a tarred brick ground floor and weatherboarded upper section. The artist Sir Alfred Munnings RA was born at the property in 1878.
