Appraisal
This house may formerly have been in use as a mill manager's house. The layout of the house is interesting as from the north it appears to be a single-storey building, while from the south overlooking the mill, it has a two-storey form. The façade is enhanced by the retention of sash windows and tripartite sash windows. It forms part of a significant group of industrial buildings, facing the mill stream, with the mill, the other mill manager's house and the mill race to the south.
