Low Mill Approximately 60 Metres North of Markington Hall

Low Mill, located approximately 60 metres north of Markington Hall, is a disused water mill from the early 19th century. The building is constructed of cobble and rubble, featuring limestone and sandstone quoins, and has a Westmorland slate roof. It consists of three storeys that are terraced into the hillside, with a layout of one by three bays.

The south gable front has central board doors on both the ground and first floors, which are topped with sawn stone lintels. The flanking windows on the first floor are small and feature 16-pane cast-iron frames with cambered brick heads. There is a ramped track leading to a loading door at the second floor level, which has an incised lintel. On the left side, there is a sluice for the mill race that powered the central mill wheel. The building has paired gutter brackets and gable copings on both the left and right returns.

The right return includes an attached two-storey lean-to range that was originally a cart shelter and later converted into an engine house. This section has three windows on each floor, with the central first-floor window altered to serve as a door. There is also a single-storey outbuilding attached to the south-west corner that was once a stable and is now used as a garage.

Inside, much of the machinery remains intact, including a breast-shot wheel, gearing to control sluices, cogs, and two pairs of grindstones. The mill also housed a corn-drying kiln. In the 20th century, it primarily ground oats and barley using 'grey stones' from Derbyshire, as well as maize with iron-bound 'French stones'. Low Mill was likely built to replace the High Mill at the west end of the village and was closed in 1966.
