History
Water-powered mill and mill house, the mill dated JE 1844. Occupied by W. Eynon 1926.

C20 panelled centre door. Slate voussoirs and sills. C20 one bay addition on left end. At right angles to right mill has J.E. 1844 plaque over C20 double doors, in widened opening of which original stone voussoirs survive, and 2-window range of C20 9-pane windows to right. To right, an added slightly lower section has double band of red brick doveholes interrupted by a central square window with C20 9-pane glazing. Dove-holes are arched, and there are slate shelves. Ground floor door with slab lintel. One window to right end wall. Then small one-storey outbuilding with window and door and finally a pigsty with single-pitch roof.
