The scattered remains of a mill at the base of the Nine Wells valley near where it meets the sea. Two walls of a rectangular building measuring approximately 5 by 6m survive. The southern wall which is about 0.5m high contains a slit and an arch which is now at floor level. Traces of masonry were noted amongst the large over-grown banks immediately east of this structure but no building outlines could be identified.
The early editions of the O.S. maps show two abutting rectangular building with a third a short distance away. At the end of the 19th centry and the beginning of the 20th century the water power was used to weave cloth but previously corn was ground at the site. Fenton remarks on this mill in his Tour of Pembrokeshire (1811, 134) and according to F.W. Warburton who wrote on the history of the Solva area the mill closed in 1915 (1944, 37).
