Description

A substantial, but ruinous, later 18th C water-powered linen mill on right bank of River Bann. Two-storey section at each end, and single storey in middle section. Roof formerly pitched and slated, but now entirely gone. Walls of random rubble, also ruinous. Traces of mill pond behind (to east) and headrace towards north end to internal waterwheel. Concrete render on headrace walls suggests possible second world war usage. Configuration of pond embankment suggests there may also have been a second water intake to the middle section.
