Description
Archaeological monitoring and recording were undertaken by AC Archaeology associated with the construction of an extension at the Dunster Water Mill Tea Rooms. These comprise a sandstone range with later lean-to additions that are likely to have originally formed part of the adjacent Castle Mill complex and probably formed stables constructed around the start of the 19th Century, with subsequent extensions forming a pigsty and goose house also dating to the first half of the 19th century. A small number of structural and surface remains associated with these were exposed together with two broadly contemporary surfaces, one including part of a millstone.
