The three-storey Stove House dates from before 1810, and was probably built as part of the original construction of the flax mill, as it was used for drying materials after they'd been dyed in the attached Dye House. Both were Grade II* listed https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101270566-ditherington-flax-mill-dyehouse-and-stove-house-shrewsbury#.WzMpj9JKhPY in 1987, and are currently (2018) in the process of renovation under the auspices and guidance of Historic England.
