Details Farmstead, still in use, and remains of a mill, depicted on historic OS maps. The 1st edition shows two L-plan structures, the western one with attached enclosures to the north. To the southeast is a dam and mill pond and an L-plan building (mill). By the time of the 2nd edition, the western most building has been enlarged to form a U-plan steading, and the former L-plan building immediately east has been reduced to a rectangular plan. The mill building to the southeast has also been altered and extended. Current maps indicate that the south wing of the steading has been removed and the west wing is ruinous, as is the mill, and the pond has been infilled. A standing building survey of the mill was carried out by Cameron Archaeology in 2015. The original early 19th century mill built of granite and sandstone rubble with granite lintels, quoins and jambs, is on an L-plan comprised two rooms and the wheelhouse. The mill had a first floor throughout. The wheelhouse is a slate roofed building on the southeast side of the mill, with an aperture through the wall containing the cast iron driveshaft. Three later extensions to northwest, southeast and in the internal angle of the L-plan, have since been demolished, that to the northwest surviving only as a low walled enclosure.
