(Location cited as NO 246 182). New Mill, Parkhill Farm, Newburgh. 19th century. A handsome three-storey, three-bay building with prominent quoins. An overshot wheel with iron rings and axle, and wooden buckets and spokes, drives two pairs of stones. Well kept by the owner, who runs the wheel occasionally.
J R Hume 1976.
Parkhill. whinstone and pantiled steading of 18th century origin, extended in 1858-9, perhaps the date of the three-storey mill on the W, its waterwheel still in place.

PARKHILL MILL, NEWBURGH
East side of Newburgh, Coastal road to Lindores NO 24524 18566
Possibly built in 1859, the date of improvements to the adjacent farm steading and apparently once forming part of that complex. The overshot
timber and cast-iron waterwheel is external to one gable. Unlike mills further north, the kiln is not readily identifiable by any external flourish. It
recently became a private house.
