Description
This is an early 19th-century house attached to a watermill, with later 20th-century additions to the house. The building is composed of a mixture of materials: stucco and brick for the house, brick and boarding for the mill, tile for the house roof, pantile for the mill roof, and slate for the connecting block.
The front (north-west) of the house is two storeys high, featuring irregular window placement with five windows above two. The brick walls are of Flemish bond with blue headers, and have cambered ground floor openings. Some window openings have been filled in, and the north side of the house is rendered. The house has casement windows, some with decorative shutters on the first floor. A plain doorway features a Gothic fanlight above a four-panelled door. The rear extensions to the house are single-storey with an attic, and have a half-hipped roof. The most recent section has a widely-spaced bricknogged timber frame.
The mill is a three-storey rectangular block, with four windows to the brick section and one to the boarded section at the south end. A low-pitched pantile roof covers the mill, with walls of English bond and cambered arches to the small openings.
A roadway passes in front of the mill, above two low-arched water races. A single-storey link unit with a slate roof, half-gabled at the front and hipped at the rear, connects the house and the mill, where their long fronts overlap slightly.
