Description
The Mill House is a mill house with an attached mill and workshops, dating from the 18th century and extended in the 19th century. It is constructed of brick, with part of the house featuring tile-hung cladding on the first floor, and the roofs are covered with old plain tiles, except for the mill itself, which has a slate roof. The building includes a mill house, corn mill, saw mill, separating dairy, and estate workshops.
The layout consists of a two-storey, tall-roofed 19th-century mill attached to a two-storey, two-bay 18th-century mill. There is also a 1½-storey L-shaped mill house that was remodeled in the early 20th century, with a 1½-storey, three-bay wing against the end of the house. Along the rear of the main range, there is a single-storey double-pile workshop.
The main elevation features a 1½-storey house on the right-hand side with two bays. The left-hand bay has a half-hipped gable in line with the rest of the facade, while the right-hand bay is set back and has a half-hipped gable on the end. The first floor is jettied and tile-hung, with the left-hand bay featuring three-light casement windows. There is a ridge stack on the right-hand bay. To the left, the mill has segmental-headed paned windows on both floors and a raised band on the first floor. The left-hand 19th-century mill has large three-light windows on the first floor. Inside, there is a derelict iron Poncelet water wheel that once drove a pair of stones, a saw, and a separator for milk from the estate, whose butter was taken to the adjacent butter house dairy.
