Abstract:
The photographic recording of the mill and farmstead was keyed to a plan and accompanied a written description in April 2022. All elevations were photographed as far as possible face-on and from a consistent height and perspective. Where possible, all ground floor record photographs included a scaled ranging pole. Where it was not possible to capture an entire elevation in a single photograph because of the constricted nature of the site, a series of partial elevations were recorded along with an oblique overall view of the full elevation. Subsequently, the visual record of the mill was further enhanced by means of a digital 3D laser scanning survey carried out in April, 2022, from which plans and elevations were captured. In addition, an attempt was made to research the history of the buildings through locally available historic maps and records which could shed light on the history of the buildings. A programme of building recording has been carried out at Middridge Grange Mill, Redworth (NGR: NZ 2432 2425) as part of a historic buildings recording project carried out on a group of Farmsteads and Mills for the Bright Water Landscape Partnership. To accompany a written description of the buildings a plan was produced by Peter Ryder, historic buildings consultant, and photographic recording undertaken in April 2022 by colour digital photography using a Panasonic DMC-FZ1000. The visual record of the farmstead was further enhanced by means of a digital 3D laser scan of the mill complex carried out in April, 2022. In addition, an attempt was made to research the history of the building through locally available historic maps and records. Middridge Grange Mill is situated on the north side of the valley of Red House Beck, 400 m from the old house of Middridge Grange which tops the ridge on the north side of the valley. The mill is a small but lofty building which seems to be of one build with the slightly-lower adjacent house on the east; the third element in the range is a slightly-lower short bay, added to the house on the east. The mill, constructed of roughly-coursed rubble (largely rounded cobbles) with irregular roughly-shaped quoins and some cut dressings, is marked clearly as a ‘corn mill’ on the tithe map of 1844 and, as with other mills of the region, likely dates to the earlier part of the 19th century.
