Description
Foelas corn mill, Pentrefoelas, is a stone building of two storeys with an iron overshot wheel on its east side, fed by a timber launder from the millpond to the north of the mill. Inside there are three pairs of mill stones with hoppers and shoes, etc. The mill was reputedly rebuilt in 1815 by Morus Llwyd. It was restored to working order in 1985-88, and is complete and operational (in 1993).
