Description
The Auld Mill, located on Braehead Road in Glamis, has its origins in the 17th century but was altered in form during the late 18th to early 19th century. It is a two-storey corn mill that includes a wheel-house and a detached kiln. The building is constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings and features chamfered arrises.
On the southeast elevation, which faces Glamis Burn, the lower wheel-house is positioned to the left of the center, while the taller mill building is to the right. Both sections display a variety of asymmetrical openings.
To the northeast, there is a joiners workshop that is a piend-roofed single and two-storey building, also covered with Angus stone slates. The two-storey section has an advanced bay on the river elevation.
The northwest elevation features a two-storey building on the right, which has a boarded timber door in the left bay at ground level and a window to the right on each floor. To the left is a lower, three-bay range that includes a large sliding timber door on the left and altered windows in the center and right bays, which have vertically-aligned astragals.
