Early mid 19th century, tall 3-storey L-plan mill; all rubble.
North arm of mill consists of kiln, with piended roof and 2 squat, square wooden ridge vents. One large, 1 small over-shot wheel at east gable, both served by overhead wooden lade leading from bank at south, into which the mill is built. Large timber cantilevered square chute projects at south elevation, breaking wallhead into piended roof. Lean-to at rear, with diminutive gabled dormer, links south elevation with bank. Piended Caithness slate roofs.
Disused, but internal fittings appear in situ. "One of the best Caithness mills". John Hume, 1977. Second, small mill wheel motivates automatic stoker, feeding chaff to kiln fire.
