Field Visit (11 June 2010)
Nothing substantial can now be seen of this mill, which stood on the E bank of an un-named stream 55m E of the farmhouse at Badister. However, its lade, measuring some 41m in length, is still visible and at the point where it passed under the mill it is revetted on its SW side by a 2m length of walling 0.7m in height.
