Scope and Content Horse-mill, St Mary's Steading, Fife St Mary's Steading was established in the early 19th century and consists of a Z-plan range with an L-shaped extension. Valued at £2,500 in 1910, it fell out of agricultural use in modern times and was converted for domestic, workshop and storage use. This octagonal building is a horse-mill. Inside, a horse walked in circles, turning gears to drive machinery in the nearby threshing-barn. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
