Description
The former granary and water mill at Little Kilmory dates from the earlier to mid 19th century. It is a two-storey, four-bay rectangular building situated on a sloping site. The structure is constructed from harl-pointed random rubble sandstone with rubble quoins, featuring red rubble sandstone at the upper stage. The openings have long and short surrounds. At the rear, there is a roofless lean-to addition made of part-harled red-brick.
On the west elevation, there are steps leading to a boarded timber door that is offset to the left of center. To the right, there is another boarded timber opening, and a ventilation slit is located at ground level in the outer right bay. The first floor has regularly spaced ventilation slits in all bays.
The east elevation features a two-leaf boarded timber door that breaks the eaves at the first floor and is offset to the left of center. There are regularly spaced square openings at ground level. The lean-to red-brick addition is located to the outer right, which may have served as a former turbine house or store.
On the south elevation, there are two-leaf boarded timber garage doors centered at ground level. The north elevation has a boarded opening at ground level and a small square window centered in the apex above. The building has a graded grey slate roof with raised stone skews.
