Modern watermill and associated water management.


Historical rentbooks show that a mill has existed on this site since at least 1631.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1868 shows a corn mill at this location.


The mill is immediately adjacent to the Silver Burn, and the wheel was located on the north gable. The millpond is located immediately to the northwest, and is fed by a leat which is taken off the river 250m upstream. The leat was protected by a sluice at its upper end, and an overflow sluice prevented the millpond from overtopping.


The complex is now used as a retail and visitor facility.
