Description
White Mill and Mill House is an 18th-century building located on Mill Lane in Shapwick. The house features brick walls, a tiled roof, and brick stacks, and it stands two storeys high. The central entrance has a part-glazed door set within a timber porch that has a segmental arched roof. On the ground floor, there are two casement windows with glazing bars, while the first floor has three similar windows. A single-storey lean-to extension with a tiled roof is located at the front of the house, next to a blocked window.
The mill, situated at the rear of the house and dating from a slightly later period, has brick walls with a dentil cornice at the eaves and a tiled roof. It rises three storeys and includes an attic. The mill features timber doors on the ground and first floors, as well as casement windows on the first floor. Although the mill originally had two water wheels, they have since been removed, but much of the other machinery remains intact.
