Details Mill of Glenkindie, dating from 18th century, depicted on historic OS maps. The 1st edition shows a complex of buildings including the corn mill with a lade leading from the north. By the time of the 2nd edition (on which it is annotated as a corn and sawing mill) the long range at the southeast of the group had been removed, and the easternmost building extended to an L-plan. Current maps show the building to the south of the mill has since been removed. The mill is rubble built, with a brick-built kiln and a large overshot wheel with segmental gearing which drove the millstones and adjoining sawmill. The mill was rebuilt 1901-2 after a fire.
