Description

Boysack Mills is a two-storey building constructed from rubble and slate, featuring an outside wheel and inset stone. It was originally built in 1762, with additions made in 1896.

Inside, the mill retains a reasonably complete set of workings and machinery, including timber hoppers, associated millstones, pulleys, and chutes. The interior also showcases timber beams and columns along with the millstone machinery.
