Title
Scarbottom Mill, Cragg Vale - HPC00142
Description
NAME: SCAR BOTTOM MILL
LOCATION: Cragg Road, Mytholmroyd
REF: CD 131
GRID REF: 010 257
CLASSIFICATION: B and C
CONDITION: Empty
APPROX DATE OF SITE AND BUILDINGS: Early 19C/late 19C
DESCRIPTION/HISTORY: A quite large, four storey stone building with two distinct periods of development. The eastern end of the mill is a good example of an early mill building, with some parts possibly dating back to the 1790s. An early, square, stone chimney is built into the roof. The western end (nearest to the river) is a late 19C addition. The large dam is now overgrown. Weir and sluices upstream, near Hoo Hole Mill.
PRESENT USE AND POTENTIAL: The mill was used until a few years ago but now stands empty apart from some storage on the ground floor. It is worthy of being listed, with emphasis placed on preserving the early part of the building.
