Description

Newby Bridge Farmhouse, attached outbuildings, and mill date from the 18th century and feature later additions. The structure is built of stone rubble, with some areas roughcast, and has slate roofs. The farmhouse is two storeys high and consists of four bays; the first bay projects forward under a catslide roof, while the fourth bay has a later single-storey outshut also under a catslide roof. An outbuilding extends to the left, and a gabled outbuilding is to the right, with the mill located at the rear. The central bays of the farmhouse have an inset timber beam over the ground floor with a band above. The windows are casements, and the outshut has a small boarded opening. The left outbuilding features a pivoted door with a slated lintel and dripstone, while the right outbuilding is roughcast, with a boarded-up entrance that has a slated lintel and dripstone. There are two cross-axial stacks.

The right side of the building has three storeys and six bays, with the last four bays projecting forward to form the mill. The first two bays have two-light wooden chamfered-mullion windows, which are unglazed, and other window openings are either unglazed or boarded. The second bay includes an entrance with paired pivoted doors. The mill has paired doors in the fourth bay with a loading door above, and there are window openings in the third and sixth bays on both the ground and first floors. The rear of the house rises to three storeys due to the slope of the ground. Ground floor windows feature small-paned fixed glazing and sash windows with vertical glazing bars, while the first and second floors have windows in former loading bays with timber panels in between. The right outbuilding has an entrance and a window at a lower level, with a small opening above. The mill includes a three-bay, two-storey outshut under a catslide roof, with a segmental-headed entrance and a 20th-century lean-to greenhouse with square boarded openings above. Inside the mill, there is a wheel pit with a wood and iron wheel in the end bay, characteristic of a Lowder type mill, along with some wooden machinery, including a rare clasp-arm type pit wheel and lantern gearing, and three upper cruck trusses. This building is a fine example of its type.
