Description
Penleigh Mill is a mill house that has been converted into a detached house, dating from the late 18th century and early 19th century. It is constructed of English garden wall bond brick and features a thatched roof with brick stacks. The building is designed in an L-shape and is two stories tall with a four-window north front. The entrance is marked by a six-panelled door located in a trellised porch to the right of the center. To the right of the door is a 16-pane sash window, while to the left are two 3-light segmental-headed casements. On the first floor, there are two 3-light casements along with a 12-pane sash and a 16-pane sash window to the right. There is also a rear wing that has a thatched roof. The interior was not accessible during the survey conducted in June 1986.
