Description

Melin Wynt y Craig is a full height, three-storey windmill tower built in a circular plan. The walls are made of rubble masonry that originally had a render, with some of the render still remaining. There is a doorway on the north side and rectangular windows above, which are modern. The openings feature flat-arch, voussoir lintels. The mill tower has a modern cap that is slate faced, with broadly projecting eaves and slightly tapering sides leading to a flat roof.
