The Water Mill / Melin Felindre

The Water Mill, also known as Melin Felindre, is a 19th-century corn mill and workshop range constructed from rubble stone, featuring a single slate roof and a small brick chimney set on a stone base along the ridge that separates the two sections. The building stands two storeys tall.

The mill section includes two upper 2-light timber windows with shutters and stone sills, positioned beneath the eaves. On the ground floor, there is a small window to the right, slightly offset from the window above, which has thin stone voussoirs forming a cambered head, a stone sill, and shutters. To the left, aligned with the upper window, is a boarded stable door with a brick head, equipped with wrought-iron strap hinges. There is also a narrow opening in the centre of the ground floor, featuring a timber lintel, stone sill, and shutters, which may have been used for a shaft or pulley. An iron shaft for a grindstone passes through the wall below and to the left of this opening, supported by a low block of rubble stone. The right end wall showcases a large overshot waterwheel, approximately 12 feet in diameter, with an iron rim and hub, timber spokes, and buckets. Above this, there is a loft window with stone voussoirs.

The longer workshop range has four plain long upper windows, fitted with late 20th-century 3-light glazing, brick sills, and brick sides, with their heads also located beneath the eaves. These windows appear to date from the late 19th or early 20th century. On the ground floor, there is a window to the left with a brick side and renewed 3-light glazing, followed by a half-glazed door, a broad cart-entry with a cambered brick head and 20th-century door-and-sidelight infill, another door, and a small 2-light window. Most openings have renewed timber lintels, except for the main entry. There is a mark of a blocked opening above the left door. The west gable end features brick quoins at the upper level, indicating the addition of an upper storey. The west end wall is rendered and has a lean-to structure.

The rear wall is also rendered and includes doors leading into the workshop ranges on the left, along with three upper-level windows. There is a window and door leading to the upper floor of the mill.

The mill retains its complete machinery, including an inner pit-wheel, drive to two stones, and hoists in the roof. The roof features 19th-century pine trusses, one heavy beam on the ground floor, and two pine beams, along with iron posts on the back wall.
