Edenbridge Mill is a five-storey brick tower mill with a domed cap. It had four sails carried on a cast iron windshaft. The mill was winded by a fantail. The mill retains the Wallower, upright shaft and iron Great Spur Wheel, which drove the millstones overdrift. [3] Old photographs show that there was a stage at first floor level.
The property was sold in 1990 to a developer who over a nine-year period converted the building to residential use, making only minor changes to the outside. Two small windows, both on the third floor, were made larger. The air raid shelter was removed. The external staircase shown in earlier photographs was replaced with a staircase of a gradient compliant with building regulations.[ citation needed ]
