Vivers Mill
Vivers Mill is a historic watermill in Pickering, North Yorkshire, a town in England.
There is believed to have been a mill on Pickering Beck at the site since the 12th century.[1][2] The current building was constructed in the early 19th century, along with an attached house, row of cottages, and outbuildings. In the late 20th century, it was converted into a house. It has been grade II listed since 1975.[3]
The corn mill is built of stone and some brick, with quoins, four storeys and four bays. It contains doorways, windows and a weatherboarded gabled hoist. To the left is a single storey extension, and to the right is the mill house, with two storeys, two bays and horizontally sliding sash windows, and an archway over a stream. At the rear are a cottage and outbuildings.[3][4] Inside, the waterwheel survives, and there are exposed beams and vaulted brickwork.[1]
