Exterior description and setting
A former vernacular rubble stone mill building, located close to the refurbished nineteenth-century mill complex at Ballyknockan. This two-storey building, now roofless, is thought to be the oldest part of the complex,dating from the seventeenth century, but is now a ruinous shell. This building was surveyed in the First Survey but not listed. Only a Partial Survey was taken during the Second Survey as the building is not of sufficient architectural interest to warrant a full Second Survey.
