The mill is situated in the Mill Field, in Curwen Park, 0.5km NE of Workington Hall. It was driven by the gutt which flows out of the river, through the millrace and then on through Workington into the Workington Docks. It was previously used as a saw mill and belonged to the Curwen Estate. It is used as a home now but you can still see marks on the wall where the wheel turned.
