A water mill situated on the River Great Eau in Withern. The mill is in disuse. A corn miller, George Tickler, is recorded in Withern in White's 1856 History, Gazetteer & Directory of Lincolnshire suggesting the building dates at least back to the mid-19th century. The 1887 OS Map lists Withern Mill as a flour mill. Three storey, three bay brick building (painted white) with pantiled hipped roof. It is not possible to discern the Brick Bond. Fenestration on primary elevation are either sash windows, or blocked up. There is a two storey lean-to range built with the same construction materials to the primary elevation. A single storey range runs to the west of the property, with a corrugate tin roof. {1}{2}
