Description
Mill Farmhouse is a building that dates to around 1800 and originally served as a mill and millhouse, but is now a house. It features a rendered exterior over chalk rubble and has a hipped Welsh slate roof with brick ridge, end, and rear internal stacks. The building is designed in an L-shape, with the mill located at the rear left. It stands two storeys tall and has a three-window range. The entrance includes a stone porch supported by Tuscan columns, leading to a six-panelled door with a fanlight above. There is a round-arched sash window above the door, and the windows on the first floor consist of six-pane sashes, with an additional four-pane sash in the four-window range.
The mill at the rear is also two storeys and has a two-window range constructed of English bond brick, topped with a gabled Welsh slate roof. It features a chamfered timber lintel above a 20th-century door, with segmental arches over two-light casements to the left and segmental arches over a ground-floor double entry, a 20th-century door, and a plank loft door to the right. Inside, the millhouse retains an early 19th-century interior, which includes fireplaces and stairs, while the mill has chamfered ogee-stopped beams.
