Description
Shipton Mill is a corn mill with an incorporated house, dating from the mid-19th century. It is constructed of coursed and dressed stone, featuring a corrugated asbestos roof on the mill and a stone slate roof on the house, which has a stone end stack. The mill is three storeys high, while the house is two storeys with an attic, forming a single L-shaped plan. The house extends back to create the L shape, with a break in the roofline between the five-bay mill and the single-bay house. All openings have cambered heads.
The mill features four paired six-pane casement windows and a plank door in the fourth bay from the left on the first floor, along with a large straight-headed double central opening above. On the ground floor, there are three similar windows and one double opening with a timber lintel to the left. The house has one similar window on both the ground and first floors, a gabled dormer at the eaves, and a plank door to the left on the ground floor. Remains of a waterwheel can be found on the left-hand return of the mill.
The interior has been updated with new machinery, as the original equipment was removed when the mill was converted to a sawmill for a period. Cast iron columns support the lower floors, while the remaining construction is in timber.
