Description
Padley Mill is a former water-powered corn mill that has been converted into a dwelling. It dates from the mid-18th century and is constructed of coursed gritstone with ashlar dressings and quoins. The building features a single ridge stone stack at the east end and is topped with a Welsh slated roof. It stands two storeys above an underwork and consists of three bays. The window openings have shallow arched heads cut into flat stone lintels, with simple 2-light casements that include horizontal glazing bars. The underwork has three semi-circular arches, with two large openings connected by a smaller arch; one of these openings is blocked, while the other has planked doors. The east gable has a central doorway that is approached by steps and is flanked by 12-light windows. There is also a 20th-century triangular bay to the south of the doorway.
