Description
The building is an 18th century water mill with an undershot wheel which has led to it receiving a Grade II listing. The exterior is clad using white weatherboarding with various casement windows and a distinctive loading bay projecting from the 2nd floor. The roof is gambrel in design and half hipped at the right.

The ground floor is a large room with access to the terrace and two sets of stairs to the 1st floor, at the centre sits a large timber mill wheel. There are also two WC’s, a storeroom and bar area.

The 1st floor is a large open plan room currently used for office space and includes a kitchenette area. Finally, the 2nd floor is again a large room with vaulted ceilings used as office space with three storerooms, a WC and shower. This is again accessed via two separate staircases.

Measured Areas
The property measures as follows:
Ground Floor: 532 Sq Ft (49.4 m2)
First Floor: 918 Sq Ft (85.3 m2)
Second Floor: 1021 Sq Ft (94.6 m2)

Planning and Alterations
The lawful use of the building is within Use Class E of the Use Classes Order. This means that it can be used for retail, office, café, light industrial operations & more.

We believe there is potential to either convert the entire building into a single dwelling or have 2 no. Dwellings located on the 1st and 2nd floors respectfully, which leaves options to incorporate the ground floor.

The premises was once a restaurant and it is felt a liquor license could be easily obtained to create a bar or restaurant.
