GV II

Former mill, now dwellings. Some C18 work, but major extensions, including addition of floors, in 1846 and 1887, and interior remodelling in late C20. Squared coursed stonework, slate roofs. EXTERIOR: in 2 parts; to the left, in 4 storeys and 2 windows, all late C20 replacements in original flush stone surrounds on stone sills. At ground floor is a large garage opening to a concrete lintel. The gables are coped, and in the left return is a large late C20 window at third-floor level. Set high in the wall is a stone panel with 'RH & F LUCKHAM 1887'in raised sans-serif lettering. To the right is a lower range in 3 storeys, with 4 windows, all late C20 replacements in original openings with segmental voussoirs and wood sills. In bay 2 is a glazed door and sidelight, and bay 3 has a large gabled dormer, formerly a hauling way, with inscribed date 'Garnet-Jones 1966', above a glazed door to timber footbridge crossing to South Mill (qv), and a further window. The return to the right has three 2-light uPVC windows, and a blocked doorway. A low link building, with a low door and a second door on a flight of 9 stone steps, links to the Old Mill House (qv). This section of the building has a stone panel with 'JH TIZARD 1846'in raised lettering with serifs. INTERIOR: no machinery retained and has been completely modified internally. The mill, with South Mill across the road, is an important element in the street, and a reminder of former industrial activity here by the River Wey, which is culverted under the left-hand end of the building.
