The monument comprises a corn mill of early post-Medieval date, visible as an upstanding building.
The monument lies beside a burn at around 60m OD. The mill house is terraced into the slope and measures about 8.2m by 3.9m internally. Its stone walls are clay-bonded and measure up to 0.9m thick by about 1.3m in surviving height. To the NW there are the remains of the mill dam and lade. The mill was already in ruins by 1847.
The area proposed for scheduling comprises the remains described and an area around them within which related material may be expected to be found. It is a truncated circle on plan, with a maximum diameter of 50m, bounded on the SE and SW by the burn, as marked in red on the accompanying map extract.
