On the south side, there is a blocked window at ground floor center with a brick head, and a similar window at the first floor center. To the right on the ground floor, there is a small pair of casement windows with a brick head. The east end is notable for a large 14-foot overshot iron wheel made by Davies of Machynlleth, with a loft window situated above it. Inside, there are pine floor joists and remnants of machinery at the east end.
