Description

A mill in limestone rubble with slate gabled roof. The W gable end is of 3 windows and has a crenellated parapet over both flanking bays and rising over the projecting centre gable. On the ground floor the centre bay has a wide pointed entrance arch and the end bays have narrower pointed window openings. The upper floor has a pointed central window and circular openings in the flanking bays.

The E gable has a small modern window at high level and a larger opening, now a window but retaining the hinge pins of former double doors, at ground level.

The N elevation to the lane is irregular with a slighly advanced left part, including 2 filled ventilation slits, a centre part with 3 modern windows, and a right part considerably advanced under a catslide roof, with a single modern window. The S elevation to the pond is completely altered.

The wheel pit at the E end of the building is a space about 2.4m in width, and there is said to be a deep pit beneath this, the wheel having been an overshot one of considerably size. A hole in the wall from the present sitting room may have been for a control working a sluice on the end of the launder.

There is a masonry stone wall dividing the wheel chamber for the full height of the building. The main part of the mill, to the W of this, is in 2 structural bays with a C19 king-post truss. There are no other observable internal dating features.
