Description

The Old Mill is an 18th-century corn mill located on the site of an earlier mill in Eynsford Riverside. This mill was originally established to provide bread for communion by the medieval church. The north-west half of the building is constructed on piles over the river. It features two storeys with a weatherboarded exterior and a barrel-shaped roof that is currently covered with corrugated iron. The façade includes three casement windows and a doorcase with a flat hood supported by brackets. Additionally, three mill stones are embedded in the path of the front garden.

The Old Mill sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 85% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 85% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 64% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
