History

No direct dating evidence, but the character of the buildings suggests an early C19 date.

Exterior

Pair of buildings forming two parallel ranges, though not a single build. The mill is apparently the earlier of the two since an opening is blocked by the adjacent building. This has roughly squared-up boulder walling, and random slate roof; coped gable on upper elevation only. Doorway with roughly dressed lintel in gable end, and small window in return wall. Mill is a longer range with lower roofline;it is built against falling ground, and thus entered at a lower level in its long elevation. has lower roofline and is a longer range; doorway in long wall.

Interior

Only partially inspected but wheel chamber retains undershot wheel fed from earthenware pipe. C19 sawn timber trusses in both ranges.
