In the 20th century, its purpose shifted from grinding corn to generating electricity for the village, via a turbine which operated until the 1950s. Later, it was converted into a dwelling. The mill is constructed from stone, featuring quoins, a stone slate roof, stone gable copings and shaped kneelers. It boasts two storeys and six bays. The front facade includes a doorway with a stone surround on plinths, adorned with imposts, voussoirs, a semicircular arch, and a tripartite keystone. The windows are sashes. The mill has held grade II listed status since 1986.
