Description
The Steading at Lundie Mill, dated 1837, is a former grain mill that features a weathered inset stone dated 1672. This rectangular-plan building is single and three-storey, and it is connected to a two-storey steading that was expanded by a cattle court added in the late 19th century. The main building is constructed from rubble with stugged and margined ashlar dressings and has a slate roof. There is a single-storey wheelhouse on the west side, which has vertical timber boards and a corrugated metal roof, although the wheel has been removed. The cattle court is built with vertically slatted timber for ventilation, resting on low rubble walls, with brick at the east gable and a corrugated asbestos roof that was formerly covered with pantiles. The building features cast-iron rainwater goods and various cast-iron rooflights.
On the southeast elevation, the mill building is on the left and has three bays. It includes a window with security bars on the ground floor to the left, an enlarged implement door on the right with sliding doors, and three louvred openings on the first and second floors. There is a weathered inset stone inscribed 'AD 1672 AD' and a datestone reading '1837' on the left return gable. The single-storey wheelhouse is also on the left, with a blocked opening and evidence of a lowered roof on the upper parts of the right return gable. A former kiln is recessed on the right, featuring a boarded door that has been reduced in height, with a roof that conforms to the pitch and ridge of the steading, slightly advanced at the far right. The steading has original openings for the cartshed and granary, which are now blocked, and there is a large modern sliding implement door on the left. There were originally three segmental-arched cart-arches, and there are four openings with advanced cills on the first floor, along with two doors and a cart-arch on the right, which has three openings above.
The northeast elevation shows the cattle court advanced on the left and the kiln bay recessed on the right, with the mill at the far right. The ground rises to a central door on the first floor, although the steps have been removed. There is a window on the right with nine fixed panes at the top and boarded at the bottom.
Inside, the mill has a flagstone floor, and the timber upper floors remain, although the machinery has been removed. Some original rough-hewn collars and tie beams are present in the roof. The floors and divisions from the cartshed and granary have been removed. An early two-leaf, centre-hinged door leads to the cattle court, which features a flagstone walkway and trough, along with a timber and metal-framed roof.
