Description

Two-storey mill of rubble stone and restored stone tile roof. The front has a wide boarded door under a timber lintel lower R (wide enough for conveyance of sacks) and a narrowed opening to its L with iron bars. Above the doorway is a boarded opening (for hoisting grain into the building). A small 2-light opening is to its L. The waterwheel was against L gable end. The wheelpit is now mostly infilled but an opening survives at low level for the axle-tree, and a boarded gable opening is at the approximate height of the sluice box. An added lean-to stable against R gable end has an inserted doorway to R. The rear is built into the bank and has a doorway upper R under a gablet giving access to the mill from the house. (Added garage at lower level behind to L.)

Three-bay roof has trusses with collar beams. The R gable end has an infilled ground-floor fireplace, probably for a former drying floor. The lower storey retains part of the axle-tree, with pit wheel and wallower, while the crown wheel survives in the upper floor.
