Description
The Old Mill, originally known as King's Head Mill, dates back to 1810. This smock mill has been converted into a house. The ground floor was originally made of tarred brick but has been significantly enlarged to create the living space. The upper part of the building is faced with sheets of metal. It features a beehive-shaped cap that is weather-boarded, and the sweeps and fantail have been restored. The property includes modern windows and has seen additional modern features added to the southwest.
