Description

Mill Cottage, together with the adjacent Old Corn Mill, a range to the south, and sheds to the east (known as Felin Dolonog), appears to date from the 17th or 18th century. The main mill range is oriented north/south and is two storeys high with an attic. It is constructed of axe-dressed, uncoursed, and white-painted stonework. The roof is slate-covered, featuring a tile ridge and a small brick chimney positioned centrally. The mill is built with its western side against the bank of the mill leat, with a two-storey front elevation and a single-storey rear elevation. The front elevation includes two windows above a doorway, with the right-hand windows not aligned. Two upper windows and the window to the left of the door are small two-light casement windows, all set within segmental arches. A larger window to the right of the door is a 19th-century addition. The single-storey west elevation features a large central door and two small windows, all with arch heads. The north gable has an attic window similar to the front window and a small ground-floor window. The south gable is unpainted, with a boarded section at the top incorporating a hatch.

The east wing, likely the original miller’s cottage, is built of matching materials, white-painted on the north side only. Its front (north) elevation has a small two-light casement window above a shuttered window and a heck door near the corner. The rear (south) elevation has been extended, and includes a rear door and a blocked dormer window. Attached to the east wing are two open-fronted cartsheds, constructed of similar materials with the east gable wall whitewashed and featuring a former loft window. The cartsheds have open fronts with one post resting on a stone block.

A long range extends southwards from the main mill range under a lower roof. It is constructed of unpainted materials and has boarded sections where it joins the main range, both at the front (east) and rear. The south end of this range is partly boarded and partly rebuilt using concrete blocks. A lower north/south range within the group has recently been used as a cowhouse, with a stable and hayloft above.

The interior of the mill and the miller's house were not inspected, but it is said that a pulley wheel, potentially for hoisting sacks, remains in the roof of the mill.
