Recorded monuments

• WX048-011 Mill - corn
  Description

  A house and a water mill are depicted on the Down Survey map of Forth barony (1656-8) at Milltown (5) in Kilscoran parish. Rowland Scurlocke owned 70 acres at Milltown in 1640 (Simington 1953, 304). A corn mill is marked on the 1839 and 1940 eds of the OS 6-inch map at Milltown but it might not be on the site of the earlier structure. The overgrown remains of a rectangular mill building that is probably 18th century in date survives. It has several floors (int. dims 8.9m E-W; 4.7m N-S) with the stone-faced mill-race (Wth 1.15m) immediately to the W. The mill-race widens (Wth c. 5-6m) further N as it returns to a S-N stream c. 130m N of the mill. The mill has a return (ext. dims 6.6m E-W; c. 4m N-S) at N divided into two rooms, one with two millstones.
