Details Remains of a mill building, lade and dam on the west of the steeply-cut gully of the Relaquheim Burn. Recorded by RCAHMS field visit 2001. The mill is much dilapidated and obscured by a later drystone dyke that runs across its west side from north to south. It measures about 3.5m f2.6m transversely within a rubble-faced wall 0.8m in thickness and up to 0.4m in height. The lade is visible as a narrow drain-like groove on the west of the drystone wall, and runs for about 20m north to a natural hollow. This may mark the location of a mill-pond, and a scatter of rubble beside the burn may be the remains of the dam.
