A large threshing barn dominates the farmyard at the back of which is a wheelpit still containing a wheelshaft. The waterwheel was probably overshot, c16ft by 2ft 6in. It went out of use some 30 years ago. Odd gears remain on site, although not in situ, including a stone nut. The leat has now been ploughed out. Other details: Draft Report.
