What is recorded here
Mill in Mentrim got a replacement waterwheel during its renovation. You go in expecting a fresh coat of paint and come out with your old job back. Never let an enthusiastic relative organise your retirement.
Detached six-bay three-storey mill, built c.1800, currently undergoing renovation. Pitched slate roof. Rubble stone walls with cast-iron tie-plates and red brick dressings to openings. Remains of millrace to site, with replacement mill wheel.
This former mill is an interesting reminder of the industrial activity which was once associated with the area. Though currently undergoing renovations, the former mill retains many original features and materials, such as the brick dressings and slate roof. The former millrace and related outbuildings to the site enhance the setting and the context of the former mill.
