What is recorded here
Mill House in Wilkinstown has unevenly placed windows tucked right up under the eaves. They look like a family trying to see over a wall while insisting they have absolutely no interest in the neighbours.
Detached five-bay two-storey former mill house, built c.1850. Pitched slate roof with brick chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings with stone sills and render surrounds. Timber battened door to west of façade. Porch addition to east. Limestone wall of former mill to west with mill wheel opening. Rubble and brick outbuilding to site with corrugated-iron roof and external steps. Mill stone to site.
This former mill house retains its original form and some of its original features. The vernacular form of the building, with the windows set close to the eaves, and irregular fenestration, makes it a picturesque building. The setting is enhanced by the remains of the former mill, which was once powered by the fast flowing river.
