LANIVET SX 06 NW 4/107 Watermill about 30 metres south of - The Mill

GV II

Watermill. C18, with addition of circa 1840 and few later alterations. Granite and slatestone rubble, with brick dressings. Slate roof with ridge tiles and gable ends. Plan: The original mill building was of roughly square plan, with the leat running from behind, driving an overshot wheel at the right side. Circa 1840, an addition of about equal size was added at the left end, with a second overshot wheel at the left side ; the two tailraces run from the front of the mill and join together. Later in the C19, a lean-to addition of one storey with loft over was added to the front of the C19 building. Exterior: The whole building is 3-storey, the spout floor, stone floor and bin floor at the top. In the C18 building, there is a stable door with brick segmental arch and 4-pane light with brick segmental arch. 2-light casement above to the stone floor. To left, the 2-storey lean-to, with corrugated iron cladding at first floor ; C20 windows at ground floor and door. Right side has C20 window at upper level, probably originally a loading door. The right side of the mill has the wheel pit, with socket for the watershaft in the wall. The ground level is higher at the rear, so the leat would run straight into the wheel pit. Wheel missing. At the left side there is a similar arrangement, with a cast iron wheel in the pit ; iron watershaft and wooden spokes, formerly with iron shrouds and floats. Window at the stone floor and 2 small single lights to the bin floor. The side of the lean-to has a C20 window and blocked loading door. At the rear there is a 4-pane light to the stone floor and to right a 2-light casement to the spout floor and door at upper level. Interior: Inside the C18 mill, the pit wheel, wallower and spur wheel are missing, the stone nut remaining. There is gearing for the sack hoist. On the stone floor there were 2 sets of stones ; the bottom stone of one set remains, buhrstone with cast iron banding. On the bin floor, there are wooden chutes built into the floor, which were directed down to the stones. Pulley for sack hoist. No internal machinery remains in the C19 building.
