The wheel is relatively unusual in being an undershot wheel. This has the advantage of requiring a relatively low head of water, but does require a large volume of water. The wheel was restored in 2008 and is operable, although there is no machinery attached. Listed Grade II as part of the mill http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2874287.
