timber-framing with slate roofs. Buildings grouped on north and west sides
of mill pond. At the west end of the north range is the gable end of a
timber-framed building with painted brick infill. It has joweled principal
posts, a boarded gable, a straight tension brace, and is divided into square
panels by timbers of light scantling. On the first floor are two windows.
Set back to the right is a stone building, probably early C19: At the left
it has a ground floor window with glazing bars and a first floor doorway.
The two right-hand bays are angled back under a hipped roof. On the ground
floor are a window and a door, both with arched heads: To the right, adjoining

partly used as offices. The wall facing the road retains metal glazing bar
windows with arched heads on the ground floor. The range on the west side
of the pond has, at its northern end, a tall gabled building with two metal
glazing bar windows with arched heads on each floor. To the right of the
ground floor windows is a doorway with external sliding door. Between the
first floor windows is an oculus with clock. Above it is a plaque dated
1891. Against the north wall is a tall brick chimney stack. Adjoining to
the left (south) is a lower building under a hipped slate roof, probably
early C19. It has a casement window on the first floor and a low window
above it under the eaves. To the left is a door with plain reveals. The
