Cross-range has broad gable with loft opening under timber lintel and ground floor double boarded doors set to right under long timber lintel. Wing to left has one door with timber lintel towards left end, apparently to kiln-room for drying-loft. Outside steps at W end to tall loft door with timber lintel. Wing to right has grouted slates to roof and one door to extreme left, ledged stable door. Added E end lean-to. Rear of cross-wing has hole for vanished waterwheel and first floor opening to right with slab lintel. Small hole in gable for control of launder. Waterwheel axle visible in 2023.
