Description

Stravithie Mill is an earlier 19th-century building with an addition of a kiln from 1856. The main block to the west is a rectangular three-storey structure built of coursed rubble with droved dressings, featuring gabled roofs with straight skews and a slated covering. To the east, there is a narrower rectangular kiln block, also gabled with straight skews, constructed from snecked rubble and droved ashlar dressings, which includes a dated panel on the east gable. Adjacent to the west is a single-storey wheel-house made of rubble with droved ashlar dressings, featuring a gabled roof with straight skews and a pantiled covering, along with a single large door facing west.

On the north side, the earlier block has a loading bay under a cat-slide roof at the second floor on the left, with two squarish openings to the right. The first-floor windows retain their original arrangement of part shuttered and part glazed, while there are no openings at the ground floor. The kiln has a single small opening on each side at an upper level and a door at ground level on the south side. The main block to the south features a single door at ground floor right and small windows to the left, along with a large loading door at the first floor near the centre and three windows at the second floor. Internally, much of the machinery remains, including an overshot iron-framed wheel and two millstones, one made by J Smith and Son, millstone builders from Edinburgh.
