Description

A two-storey timber-framed mostly weather-boarded structure with slate roof, ranging east/west, but with a quasi-axe-dressed stone ground storey to the front (north) with boarded openings. About half of the front is weatherboarded, the other half clad in corrugated iron. The roof is badly decayed at the west end. Later north and south wings removed.

There is a small two-light window toward the front in the east gable end. Larger opening in the west gable end, where the weatherboarding of the gable is only vestigially present. The south wall (not re-inspected in 2002) is said to consist of two storeys of stonework with timber lintels and strappings to blocked openings.

A timber turbine-house at the south-east corner (now collapsed) was reported in 1986 to have its turbine by Gilbert and Gilkes (numbered 1871 and purchased 1907) still in place.

Not inspected at time of resurvey, but said to retain an industrial-style king-post roof and fine timber floor (propped) with massive longitudinal timbers flanking the saw-pit. Fine timber-frame to rare vertical frame saw still in place. Drive shafts from turbine house and pulley mechanism for frame-saw on lower floor.
