Detached water-mill - not in use. C18, enlarged in C19. Brick walls, with

rounded ironstone quoins to the south-east angle. South wall plastered.

Slate roof with coped gable on south. Weather vane at apex of this gable.

glazing bars on ground floor. Loft door and one top-hung window on first

floor. Wheel replaced by turbine in late C19. Most machinery remains,

included hoist wheel on south gable. RCHM Monument 44.

renovation looks like its in progress got caught by a farmer who advised us that we were on private land and was very forgiving

Indeed, I like mills, so much history of industry and people's everyday lives in these places!

was really nice especially in the mill itself except the upper floors are riddled with holes wood worm an rotten due to a few holes in the roof

Great to see all the stones and gear work in place as love it.

Horses for courses I know but it all tells its own story.

Thanks for the share von derps
