Miller's House

Miller's House is a house built in the late 18th century, with extensions made in 1817 and alterations in 1837 to connect it with the mill, as well as the addition of a porch and dairy. It was restored in the 20th century and was originally constructed for William Strickland. The building features herringbone-tooled sandstone with pantile and slate roofs. It has an irregular plan due to the alterations and is two storeys high with a two-window front. There is a lower two-storey, single-window connecting bay at right angles to the left. The entrance is located in a porch at the rear. All windows are renewed 16-pane sashes set in original openings, complete with stone sills. The lintels of the original house are diagonally tooled and wedge-shaped, while those in the connecting bay are vertically tooled. There are stone steps beneath the ground-floor left window leading to a board cellar door with a tooled wedge lintel. The original house has coped gable ends and vestigial stacks at the right end of both roofs.

At the rear, a gabled porch contains a datestone inscribed with the name E Strickland, B.A. from Cambridge, dated 1837, along with texts from Proverbs IV 7 in Hebrew and Thessalonians V, 16-17 in Greek. The door lintel to the rear extension is inscribed with W.S. A.D. 1817 and the phrase "REMEMBER THY END."

Inside, the cellar features a barrel-vaulted roof made of herringbone-tooled stone. On the ground floor of the original house, the porch has a small fireplace with a plain surround. The room to the left has an early 19th-century stone chimney-piece with reeded jambs, imposts, and a moulded cornice shelf. The room in the connecting bay has a stone chimney-piece with a segmental arch carved in low relief from a monolithic lintel, supported by coved imposts and plain jambs. A complete mid-19th-century range by Carter of Kirkbymoorside is still present. The room in the extension features a partly altered fireplace with double cyma reversa shelf brackets. At the time of resurvey, the house was unoccupied and undergoing restoration by The National Trust.
