It went out of use shortly after the turn of the century and from a description of its machinery was a vertical wheel type with scoops not paddles. It was fed by a lade which still exists for the most part. The mill building is of coursed rubble, mortar set, in good condition, situated on the W. side of the Kilmaluag River, immediately to the N of the Bridge.

The building was subsequently converted to domestic use and as of 2018 is called 'Mill Cottage'.
