Scope and Content Bell's Mills, Belford Road, Edinburgh This shows the west gable of the granary from the west, when it was being used as a motor-body paint shop. It is unusually deep from back to front. The mill is out of sight behind the granary. The mill was destroyed in a dust explosion in 1975, though its detached granary survived, and has been converted into an annexe to a large modern hotel which has been built on the site of the mill. This complex was built in the late 18th and early 19th century as a water-powered corn mill, driven by water from the Water of Leith. It was one of the largest mills on that river. The main mill building was on an L-plan, with a short east wing, and there is a detached granary. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
