Abbey Mill View from W

Scope and Content Former Abbey Mill, near Haddington, East Lothian Though this mill in its present form is mainly of late 18th century construction, it may well be on a medieval site, and incorporate some medieval masonry. This view shows that the mill is on an L plan. The pantile-roofed range on the right appears earlier than the slate-roofed block to the rear, which housed the kiln. By the time this photograph was taken the machinery had been removed from the mill, which was used as a store, a common fate for former water mills. When in use this mill would have ground oatmeal and animal feeding stuffs. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
