Full Description
Located on the eastern side of Baker Street is the early 18th century stone built corn mill formerley known as Croft Mill. The building has undergone substantial alteration as part of its conversion to domestic and retail use with blocked openings and inserted windows throughout and a new shopfront inserted at ground floor level. However, the building remains of historic interest in the development of the town (Hucknall Town Centre Improvement Scheme Environmental Statement, volume 2, Part 3)
