Description
Mill House and the attached mill are located over the River Bourne. The house was built in 1783, as indicated by the datestone on the south gable, while the mill is a 19th-century addition. The house features brick and flint bands, and the mill is constructed of English bond brick, both topped with a Welsh slate roof and brick stacks. The house is two stories high with a two-window front. It has a central planked door with a 19th-century slated canopy, flanked by two 2-light wooden casements with segmental-arched heads. On the first floor, there are two 2-light casements with square heads.
The mill, located to the left of the house, has a planked door on both floors and two 2-light casements on the ground and first floors. The right side of the mill has a small casement in the attic. The rear of the building has casements similar to the front, along with brick lean-to sheds and two segmental brick arches over the river.
Inside the house, there is a stone floor and chamfered ceiling beams. The mill building contains complete, disused machinery for milling flour powered by water, which remains in situ. This includes a water wheel without paddles and sluice gates in the River Bourne. The ground floor features a shaft connecting cogwheels to the water wheel and a shaft that extends through the ceiling to the machinery on the first floor, which includes two millstones connected to the cogwheels. In the attic, there are wooden hoppers for corn and chutes leading to the first-floor millstones. All wooden and cast-iron components were reported to be in excellent condition as of the survey in September 1984.
