A former water powered corn
mill, rebuilt and extended c 1920. Now a house. There was an overshot
wheel on the gable end, replaced by a Pelton wheel for generating
electricity; this survives in the wheel pit, now a cellar. Above
the house is a small detached "bake house" (locally
thought not to have been a corn drying bin) converted into a workshop.
The water came in via a long leat to a walled and embanked pond
behind the mill. The kiln was in the mill, with a tall gable end
doorway at 1st floor level. There were two pairs of stones.
