This mill was built some time around 1820 with 4 sails and a stage. Its working life was quite short lived as A.T.Evans was the last active miller in 1846. Around 1980 the then owner had ideas of 'restoring' the mill to look how it would have looked originally but to use it to generate electricity rather than milling flour. His plans never came to fruition and it is now part of a domestic residence.
