Description
Hazeland Mill is a mill, later converted into a house, built in the early 18th century with additions from the early 19th century. It is constructed of rubble stone with a slate roof, hipped to the west, and has a single ridge stack towards the east end. The building is two storeys high at the front, but three storeys at the rear. The western section, dating to the 18th century, has two windows and features cyma-moulded single-light windows. The south front has a band, blank first-floor lights, one ground-floor light, and a blocked door with stone voussoirs. The west end wall is of brick with some timber, and an attached low engine house is present. This engine house has a door over a basement level water-course to the south and a boarded opening flanked by single lights, with a 5-light first-floor window above, all cyma-moulded. The rear of the 18th-century section has two single-light windows on each floor, all with cambered relieving arches. The rear of the engine house also has two similar single lights and a door to the right.
The main range, attached to the east and under a continuous roof, is constructed of square ironstone rubble and features unmoulded window surrounds. The south side has several first-floor windows and a ground-floor door to the left. The rear elevation is three-storey and five windows wide, with 2-light windows on either side of a central door, and single-lights above. The windows are a mix of sashes and small-paned fixed lights. A one-window section to the left rises with the ground, resulting in two storeys. It has a 4-pane sash on the ground floor, a smaller 2-light above, and an added brick rear wing extending north.
The mill was part of the estates of Malmesbury Abbey, recorded as a grist and tucking mill in 1534. The freehold was held by the Bayntun family of Spye Park from the 17th century. The mill was used as a cloth mill until around 1835 and as a grist mill until around 1965.
