What is recorded here

Weir (on curvilinear-plan) spanning the River Leannan, erected c. 1812, and altered c. 1870 and c. 1930. Possibly incorporating fabric from earlier weir to site. Originally associated with Rathmelton Mills, later Kelly’s Mills (see 40800301-3) adjacent to the south-east. Squared and coursed rubble stone construction to weir. Weir originally built to supply former mill race to the north-east of weir, now out of use. Later sluice mechanism to the west end of mill race, built c. 1930, having reinforced concrete construction and remains of timber sluice gates with steel pulley mechanisms and equipment. Located adjacent to the north-west of Drummonaghan Bridge (see 40800210) and in the rural countryside to the west of Ramelton.
