Remains of corn mill. C16 or C17, undergoing reconstruction at time of resurvey. Thinly-coursed sandstone, no roof at time of resurvey. Single storey, single cell. Large quoins. Intact north gable has inserted doorway on right and double-chamfered, 2-light mullioned window in gable (now bricked up). Opposite end wall rebuilt with large, quoined opening spanned by old tie beam, no gable walling. Right return: side wall has low slit window beneath opening with square-faced surround.
Interior: central tie beam with soffit mortices, old wall plates.
A mill at Bedgreave is referred to in a settlement to the Darcy family in 1631. Although apparently post-medieval the building is in the form of a medieval single-cell mill which would have grindstones raised on a platform at one end lit by side-wall windows, the drive coming from a pit beneath; survivals of such medieval structures are exceedingly rare.
