Kerrowcruin Mill
Archaeology
Modern millpond.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1869 shows a group of buildings, together with the annotation, 'Corn Mill'.
The mill complex has since been destroyed by coastal erosion. The mill was supplied by a leat and millpond, both of which however still survive and provide water to a modern fish farm.
Water is drawn from the river 380m upstream of the mill along a 160m leat to a millpond, at the other end of which a 130m leat connected the pond to the mill.
The quarter acre millpond (centred at the grid reference provided) still functions today.
