What is recorded here

Outbuilding in Mentrim belongs to a mill-yard family that was already about 160 years old when the house arrived around 1940. You could live in that house for another century and the stone sheds would still introduce you as ‘the new crowd’.

Group of industrial outbuildings, built c.1780, now disused. Rubble stone walls with pitched corrugated-iron roofs. Timber battened doors. Four-bay single-storey house to site, c.1940, with corrugated fibre cement roof and cast-iron casement windows.
This group of outbuilding enhance the setting and the context of the mill. The outbuildings retain many interesting features and materials such as the corrugated-iron roofs and timber battened doors. The house to the site is representative of the materials which were often utilised for the construction of vernacular structures in the first half of the twentieth century.
