(Location cited NS318538) '...Mid-19th century. The ruins of a rectangular rubble building, with the farmework of a suspended iron mid-beast wheel, 3ft wide by 18ft diameter (0.91m by 5.49m). The buckets and sole, now missing, appear to have been of sheet iron. The drive to the mill was by an internal gear ring. At the rear of the mill a large mill-pond, now drained, still exists'.
J R Hume, 1976
