Mullin y Cartey, Silverdale Fulling Mill

Archaeology

Modern miller's cottage.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1868 shows a miller's cottage at this location.


The adjacent mill was built in 1739 by a partnerhip of three, who arranged for it to be run a week at a time by their nominated tucker. It is reported to have been used for both carding and fulling.


The miller's dwelling was originally designed to be occupied by two millers and their families, was thatched.


The structure is now roofless.
