Description
Marcham Mill is an early 17th-century mill and millhouse, with an 18th-century extension, and was remodelled in the 1970s. It is now a house. The building is constructed of colourwashed limestone rubble, with an old tile roof and a ridge stack adjoining the rear range, finished in stone and brick. It has an L-shaped layout, with the original mill situated within the rear wing.
The front facade is two storeys and has a two-window range. There's a timber lintel over a 20th-century window set in a blocked entry, a 19th-century two-light casement window to the left, and a 20th-century window above a blocked door. The rear wing, also two storeys, has a three-window range, with chamfered timber lintels over a 20th-century door and a blocked door. To the right of the front is an 18th-century, one-storey, one-bay building of similar materials, featuring a brick end stack and a timber lintel over a 20th-century half-glazed door. A mid-19th-century range to the rear is roughcast with a gabled Welsh slate roof and features six-pane sash windows.
The interior retains chamfered beams. The rear wing, originally the mill, has a butt-purlin roof, and the first floor was removed in the 20th century. The mill has stood on this site since the 11th century.
