Description

Two storey water powered cornmill, built to an L-shaped plan. Constructed of mortared rubble masonry with large stones as quoins and lintels; hipped roof of small slates with two paned skylights. The L plan is inverted with the longer range aligned NW-SE and the shorter range to SW. The overshot waterwheel is fed by a mill race looping off the Afon Ysgethin and is sited at the NW corner (at the northern end of the long range). Entry to the mill is via a double boarded doorway in the angle to the SE. Small casement window on each floor alongside, the first floor window beneath the eaves. Similar windows to rear and in SW wing.

The building retains many timbers of the original roof, including collared trusses. The mill also retains much of the original machinery including drive wheels, hoppers and the main axle tree and associated cog wheels.
