Corn and feedstuffs mill buildings and attached dwelling. Late C18 or early-C19,

gabled-end and hipped slate roof, the dwelling with red crested ridge tiles; the
1911 block, red brick with yellow brick dressing, and gabled-end slate roof. The
house of 2 storeys, the other buildings of 3. Old mill front with four 2-light
windows at various levels with original casements and some leaded panes; 2 doors at
ground floor, and another at 1st. Right-hand end with delivery access just above
ground level and 1 small gable wall window. The attached house with prominent front
internal stack and an end stack, both with brick shafts; the front is of 2 planes,
1 well forward of the mill and parallel to it, the other canted and linking the 2; 2
mid-c19 casement windows at 1st floor, and one late-C20 ground floor window to the

brick decorative bands, window surrounds and quoins. When listed in 1961 this mill
was believed to be the last functioning tidal mill in Devon; the wheel was enclosed
on the road side; it no longer operates as such, but some of the gear is said to
survive.
