1/145 The Old Corn Mill
27.11.75
GV II

Former corn mill now converted to accommodation. Circa early C19, remodelled circa
1970's. Shale rubble walls with granite quoins, jambstones and lintels. Asbestos
slate roof, hipped at either end of south range, gable end at north and to single
storey wing at east.
Irregular L-shaped plan with original rectangular range (south), extended soon after
with wide oblique-ended wing and at rear left and with single storey oblique ended
wing, right. Restored wheel incorporated at the left hand end.
Three-storeys. South front retains some original openings, some blocked or partly
blocked and some new ones cut when converted. Loading doorway to 2nd floor towards
left with hoist dormer has been altered to create more windows.
The other elevations display similar mixture of original and new openings, the right
hand (east) wall of rear wing mostly rebuilt.
Interior not inspected.
Though altered in the C20, much of the former mill structure remains, a particularly
large mill for Cornwall.
