The Old Mill

The Old Mill is a house dating from the early or mid 16th century, with alterations made in the late 17th century and later. It has one storey and attics, featuring a timber-framed and plastered structure. The roof is thatched and includes a 19th or 20th century eyebrow casement dormer. There is an axial chimney made of red brick from the 17th or 18th century. The windows are mainly small-pane casements from the mid 20th century, and the entrance door is a boarded style from the 20th century.

Despite the alterations in the 17th century, the original 16th-century layout is notable for its single-bay open hall and a cross-entry within the service cell. The hall displays tension-braced studwork, and the lower end partition features a strongly cambered tie beam. Beyond this is a half-bay that contains the original front cross-entry doorway, which has a four-centred arched head. The first floor has some heavy joists, while other floors are supported by 17th-century on-edge joists. There is an inserted 17th-century chimney in the cross-entry, which has a lintelled open fireplace leading into the hall, along with a later chimney backing onto it. The service end was extended to the left in the 17th century, originally with a half-hipped roof, and a further cell was added to the right in the 18th or 19th century. There are also various extensions from the 20th century.
