Description
None of the three editions of the historic 25-inch O. S. maps, published in 1889, 1900 and 1913 respectively, name this corn mill, but they all depict a pond, impounded by an earth bank, immediately to the south of the building. The names Old Mill Road and Old Mill Bridge maintain the name. The site is now occupied by a dwelling; comparison with a 1950's photograph of Yr Hen Felin (NMR C6388242) suggests that the dwelling is new-build. The pond is still depicted on moderen maps and the earth bank is clearly visible from the road.
