GRADE II LISTED HOUSE AND MILL

The house is believed to date back to the 17th century, featuring a rendered exterior, red tile roof with elegant limestone detailing. The main characteristics of the property include steel casement windows, large open fireplaces and a striking studded plank door set within a stone arched surround. Rich in architectural heritage, this home offers timeless appeal and exceptional period features throughout.

This unique property offers an exciting opportunity for modernisation, presenting a blank canvas for bespoke upgrades.

The characterful former mill, built in the mid-1800s, has a classic brick construction with a slate roof and a distinctive rectangular layout. With its original mill pond retaining walls to the east and charming architectural details, its features include segmental-headed stable doors, steel casement windows and a projecting iron wheel once linked to a traction engine. Inside, the mill retains its original flagstone floor and working machinery, including three grinding wheels and pulley systems. A rare opportunity to own a piece of industrial heritage, production ceased in 1946, but its story lives on.
