Description
Broadwell Mill, Mill House, and the attached outbuilding are a watermill and mill house, likely originating from the 18th century, with alterations and refurbishments made in 1827, as indicated by a tablet on the left gable end. The structure is built from coursed rubble limestone with dressed quoins, featuring stone slate roofs for the mill and mill house, while the outbuilding has a Welsh slate roof.
The mill, located on the left, consists of a single bay that is two storeys high with a loft. The ground floor includes a small cog-pit window to the left, a two-light barred wooden casement to the right, and an off-centre stable-type door with dressed stone jambs, a flat brick arch, and a keystone. The first floor has a two-light window to the left and another stable-type door to the left of centre. Most openings are topped with wooden lintels, and there are X and S metal tie bars. The left gable end features an overshot mill-wheel with metal cups and a date tablet with the initials HS. The mill machinery remains intact since it was last operational around 1950, including early 19th-century cog-wheels, shafts, two mill stones, shoots, and loft bins.
The mill house is two storeys with an attic and consists of four bays, showing traces of a central building break. It has three-pane sash windows, with four on the first floor and two on the ground floor. The ground floor windows and those on the left side of the first floor have flush plain architrave surrounds, while the upper right windows have bonded stone jambs. There is a gabled roof dormer on the left with a two-light barred wooden casement. A flush-panelled door with top lights is recessed in the centre. There are brick chimneys on the left and centre, with the latter being rebuilt in the 20th century. The outbuilding on the right has undergone significant alterations and features two 20th-century casements, a blocked doorway for cart entry, and a door, with all openings having wooden lintels.
