Moarfield, Yell

Moarfield is a substantial former watermill from the later 19th century, with alterations made in the mid-20th century. It is located in a gully that slopes steeply to the east. The building features drystone rubble walls, which have been raised with concrete at the top, and a steeply-pitched roof clad in corrugated iron. The mill follows a standard horizontal arrangement with a rectangular drystone rubble structure that includes upper and lower houses, each having rectangular openings for water inlet and outlet.

Inside the lower house, there are remains of a boarded timber waterwheel mounted on an iron axle, which has a pulley wheel at the southern end. The axle is supported by bearings mounted on a central dwarf wall and recesses in the gables. The eastern elevation has a cat-slide dormer above the entrance door on the outer right, leading to the upper house. This upper house contains timber mountings for gear-wheels, which have been removed since 1997, and millstones are stored in the northeast corner.

To the north, there is a small concrete dam with two sluice gates, the eastern one directing water into a concrete lade that leads to a timber chute piercing the lower house. A stone slab footbridge crosses the stream to the south of the dam.
