Description
1-7 Milton Mill is a large, 1858 mill, largely rebuilt after a fire in 1900. It has an L-shaped plan with further adjoining ancillary buildings, creating an overall T-shaped layout. The mill is constructed of rubble with tooled rubble dressings. A kiln, featuring a large pagoda kiln-vent, terminates one arm of the L-shape. An overshot iron water wheel is located at the north gable, partially concealed by a low range. Two gabled loft doors rise through the roof apex, and the building is topped with ball finials and a slate roof. Machinery is reported to remain in situ. John Hume’s The Industrial Archaeology of Scotland (1977), page 289, provides additional details.
