The Old Mill

Attached L-plan former mill, built c. 1860, comprising four-bay four-storey east block with extensions to east and five-bay three-storey split level block to west. Cast-iron water wheel to south. Pitched slate roofs with cast-iron rainwater goods, limestone copings and render eaves course. Red brick chimneystacks to east block. Render over rubble limestone walls. Square-headed openings having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows, those to south and west elevations with red brick voussoirs. Square-headed openings to north elevation, some blocked up, some having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed openings with corrugated-iron doors. Pair of square-profile rendered piers to north-west having render caps and double-leaf cast-iron gates. Mill race to south.

This mill complex is an imposing feature within the local landscape. It retains its original form and salient features such as the slate roof and brick chimneystacks. It was historically used as a creamery. The water wheel is a notable feature, which adds context to the site. The mill forms part of a related group of industrial structures including the mill race and mill manager's house to the east.
