Description
Windrush Mill is a mid 17th century to early 18th century miller's house and adjoining mill. The house is built of coursed squared and dressed limestone, topped with a stone slate roof and features restored ashlar stacks from the 20th century. The mill is constructed from coursed and roughly squared limestone. The house has a rectangular plan with a later lean-to extension at the rear and the mill building located at the right gable end. The house is situated on a slope down to the River Windrush and has two storeys and an attic. Its facade has three windows, featuring two and three-light steel casements, and a five-light hollow-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood on the lower right. Above, there is a two-light stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood, and a 20th-century plank door with a flat stone canopy supported by moulded stone brackets. The attic is illuminated by a roof dormer on the rear pitch, and the gable ends have flat coping with gable-end and axial stacks.
The mill building to the right is 1½ storeys tall and has a 20th-century dormer from the eaves. There is a stable door below, framed with run-out stops just beneath the lintel, and two buttresses with offsets to the right of the door. A small plank door is located to the right within a surround, with its lintel set at an angle, and above it is a 20th-century two-light casement. The rear wall of the mill building features two blocked stone-mullioned casements and one 20th-century two-light casement. Inside the house, there is a spine beam with deep flat chamfers. The mill retains a wooden undershot mill wheel, along with millstones and hoppers, although all milling machinery was noted to be in need of some repair as of February 1986. There was limited interior inspection of both the house and the mill.
