Description

Mill Cottage is a house that was formerly the mill house for the attached Dunkirk Mill, located in Freshford. It was built around 1795 for Thomas Joyce, a clothier from Bradford-on-Avon. The building is constructed of ashlar stone and features a pantile roof with coped raised verges and a central ashlar stack. It has three storeys and five bays, with glazing bar sash windows, some of which are blind. There is a central French door, and to the right, there is a two-storey, one-bay wing in an L shape that has a modern doorway.
