Description
Stapley Mill is a corn mill and miller's house, now a dwelling, built around 1850 on the site of an earlier mill and altered in the mid-20th century. The building is constructed of squared and coursed chert stone with a slate roof, featuring coped verges and a finial on the gable end of the mill. There are brick stacks located on the left gable end and to the right of the entrance. The structure has an L-plan layout facing south, with the former mill on the east front, which includes the remains of a waterwheel at the north gable end. The tack room on the west gable end has been converted into a loggia.
The mill is two storeys high with three bays on one side and one bay on the gable fronted end to the left, which is adorned with decorative bargeboards and a sundial that resembles one found at Churchinford Baptist Chapel. The windows are 16-pane sash windows with dressed voussoirs, except for a 12-pane window above the entrance and an inserted arch head window in the single-storey loggia end bay to the left. There is also a slate-roofed gabled porch with decorative bargeboards and 20th-century glazed infill, featuring a half-glazed door. At the rear, the remains of the waterwheel frame can still be seen.
