Eddington Mill (Mill House And Mill)

A late 18th- and early 19th-century mill house and mill, with alterations in the later 19th century, particularly to the mill itself. The building is two parts: a three-storey house and a slightly lower, four-bay mill attached to the right. It is constructed of brick with slate roofs.

The house has a central doorway, topped with a fanlight featuring radial glazing bars, set within a round-arched surround defined by impost and key stones. Flanking the doorway are later, ashlar canted bay windows with sash windows and segmental relieving arches in the brickwork above. Sashes with glazing bars are set under keyed flat brick arches to the first and second floors. The house has end stacks and a further stack to the rear left. A single-storey screen wall to the left has a door masking a side outshut.

The mill has segmental-arched, 16-pane fixed windows with projecting cills, except for the shorter second-floor windows to two bays on the right. The right-hand bay is blind on the lower floors and has a wooden triangular pigeon-cote attached at first-floor level. There are circular ends of tie bars visible, and a hipped-roofed dormer on the ridge at the left end.

The right return (facing the mill) shows changes in brickwork indicating enlargements to the mill. Ground- and first-floor loading doors are present, with a gantry above in the gable. This gable is flanked by 12-pane, segmental-arched windows with chamfered brick cills. A similar window is visible on the ground floor to the left, and to the added range on the right, which is under a continuation of the roofline.

Inside the mill, iron machinery and turbines survive largely intact.
