Description
Mill House is a Grade II listed building that was originally two houses but has been combined into one. It dates from the early 19th century and incorporates some earlier elements. The structure is timber framed and plastered, with the facade designed to resemble ashlar. The roof is slated, featuring courses of fishscale slates on the front slope. The building has two storeys.
On the upper floor, there are three sash windows with glazing bars that are symmetrically arranged. There are two matching doorways, with the one on the left being disused. Each doorway has a moulded architrave with corner squares, a frieze, and a cornice. The doors consist of six raised fielded panels on the left and six sunk panels on the right. To the left of each doorway is a sash window with glazing bars. The chimney stack has two separate square shafts set at a diamond angle.
Inside, the ground floor room to the left shows signs of possibly having an early 17th-century core, featuring widely spaced flat joists, some studding, evidence of a small secondary diamond-mullioned window, and a fireplace with a chamfered brick arch.
