On the east bank of the stream at NB 05565 33009, the remains of a third mill (mill 3) were encountered, subcircular in plan and 1.4m in diameter, with heather covered drystone walls stnading to 1.2m in height, 0.7m thick. A north to south through channel fed into the stream. A semi-circular alignment immediately adjacen on the west bank of the stream might have been a fourth mill (mill 4) but was very vague. This measured 5m across and appear to cut into the hillside.
