Description
Llwydiarth Saw Mill is a two-storey timber-framed structure, primarily weather-boarded, with a slate roof that runs east to west. The front (north) features a quasi-axe-dressed stone ground storey with boarded openings. Approximately half of the front is weatherboarded, while the other half is clad in corrugated iron. The roof is in poor condition, particularly at the west end. The later north and south wings have been removed.
On the east gable end, there is a small two-light window, and a larger opening is found in the west gable end, where the weatherboarding is only minimally present. The south wall, which was not re-inspected in 2002, is reported to consist of two storeys of stonework with timber lintels and strappings over blocked openings.
A timber turbine-house located at the south-east corner has collapsed. It was reported in 1986 to have housed a turbine by Gilbert and Gilkes, numbered 1871 and purchased in 1907, which was still in place at that time.
Although not inspected during the resurvey, the mill is said to retain an industrial-style king-post roof and a fine timber floor, which is propped, with massive longitudinal timbers flanking the saw-pit. The mill also features a fine timber frame supporting a rare vertical frame saw. Additionally, there are drive shafts from the turbine house and a pulley mechanism for the frame-saw on the lower floor.
