Flat faced mullion windows, on ground floor of 4 and 8 lights (1 light blocked), on 1st floor of 2, 4 and 2 lights; many of the mullions replaced (from elsewhere in the building). Ridge stack to left of centre. Rear: wheel chamber on left, single-storeyed with gabled roof replaced by glazed pent roof (table-stones of original roof in wall). 1st floor: above wheel-chamber two 2-light windows and one of 1 light. Central door, now glazed, which formerly led on to bridge across sluice. To right, a 2-light window. Left return: on right 2-plain-stone-surround doorways, now glazed.

Interior: central room has stone fireplace with deep lintel; same to room above. Cross beams. This was one of the early textile mills of the area. At the back of the house is a channel, formerly the sluice; in the garden are the pond, which provided the head of water, and the overflow channel. The building was converted to 2 cottages in 1880 (deeds), probably at the time of building a new mill lower down the hillside (on the mill pond). | Facts about Description |
