Abstract:		 Following the submission of a planning application for the renovation and development of Eskdale Mill, Boot, Cumbria an archaeological photographic survey and desk-based assessment was carried out by Greenlane Archaeology. The photographic survey recorded the mill and associated stable block and cottage, and ortho-rectified images of the mill were produced. The earliest part of the structure was perhaps only constructed in the mid-18th century, although it is possible that there is some medieval fabric present. The original block was subdivided and the building extended to the north and south. This was thought to relate to the installation of a second waterwheel in the mid-18th century but the presence of Baltic timber marks and the date of 1819 scratched into the drying kiln suggest that some considerable reorganisation took place in the early to mid-19th century, which may in fact have been when a second wheel was installed. The site had taken on much of its present appearance by at least the middle of the 19th century, however, early images seem to indicate that the second wheel was not added until after the 1830s. A number of families were associated the mill during the late 18th and 19th centuries, and various pieces of information relating to its development at this time are available.
