Skenfrith Mill

A sturdy stone-built watermill, with its water-wheel still intact. Built of snecked rubble with freestone quoins and freestone dressings to most openings, and slate roofs. Rectangular plan parallel with the leet to its rear, the SE half designed as a twin-gabled wing. Three-and-a-half storeys. The entrance front to the SW, the left half of which is gabled and surmounted by a gable chimney, has a segmental-headed doorway offset slightly right of centre at ground floor level, with a board door, a flanking pair of similar doorways at 1st-floor level, a segmental-headed 16-pane top-hung casement window in the gable to the left, and at 2nd-floor level of the right-hand half a small square datestone inscribed "E. PROSSER . M / P. BEAVAN . C / 1867". The left (NW) return wall, towards the castle, is symmetrical with a pair of square 2-light casement windows at ground floor and 1st floor and a single segmental-headed 2-light casement in the centre of the 2nd floor. The twin-gabled SE side is also symmetrical, each half having a segmental-headed 16-pane window to each main floor and a narrow 6-pane attic window in the gable, all these with top-hung casement openings in the heads. At the rear, over the leet, the right-hand half is gabled and has a wheel-pit containing a large iron-framed undershot water wheel with wooden paddles, and three windows vertically aligned above this (all with glazing like the SE side).
