Seen briefly by E. Rose (NLA) 4 September 1994.
The mill is taller than the house, of three storeys, with five bays to the east, some windows being blocked. The northern two bays are indeed of the same build as the house but the southern two, beneath which the millraces pass, are of brick painted over but with horizontal skintlings (post dating approximately 1770). A brick immediately above the southern race arch is impressed 'LUCKY' apparently before it was fired. In use as restaurant; interior not seen.

July 2002.
Mill damaged by fire. Interior accessible afterwards but it is stated the floors have gone leaving metal columns suspended from the beams. There are large roof tanks containing water obtained from a well. The entire third storey in fact appears to be of later brickwork.
