Details Late 18th century former mill with a 19th century addition to the north. L-plan, single storey dropping to 2-storey in the fall of the land to the southeast. Built of granite rubble with a gre slate roof and conical flue. The west, principal, elevation has a large gable to left with door opening and modern timber gabled porch to right. A piended dormer breaks the eaves to the north elevation. It has a cast iron start and 'awe water wheel. The windows are predominantly replacement timber windows The interior has been extensively modernised but retains evidence of the original layout, and retains some machinery including the mil wheel and some of the gear mechanism. The mill is first mentioned by the Earl of Fife in 1790, when he inspected the new mill on the Clunie. To the northeast of the mill is an early 20th century turbine house which made use of the lade cut for the mill and provided power to the Fife Arms Hotel.
