There were two mills at the site. The first was built in 1816 by the Countess of Sutherland to grind grain and wheat grown in the area. In 1863 another mill was built to grind oats and bere. This later mill was fully restored in 1992 and still operates today. The first mill was closed in 1922.

Research by Beryl Nicol, ARCH Community Timelines course 2010, based on papers from the mill, now in Golspie Heritage Society
