Description

The site comprises a disused watermill, an associated packhorse bridge, and a mill dam. The bridge is a narrow, single segmental arched packhorse bridge with a low parapet, spanning the watercourse immediately below the mill dam. The mill itself is of likely mid-18th century origin and contains some original machinery. The arrangement represents an interesting example of industrial archaeology.
