The National Monuments Service's description
Named 'corn mill' on the 1837 OS 6-inch map. This 19th century, four bay, three storey mill probably occupies the site of an earlier mill. Described in the Civil Survey (1654-6) as 'one waste mill' belonging to Simon Luttrell (Simington 1945, 242). Test excavation (Licence no. 08E0147) was undertaken in the vicinity in advance of the Blanchardstown Regional Water Scheme but no archaeological remains were identified.
