Description
Forest Mill is a Category B Listed former Mill which dates back to around 1838. This section of the building is of single storey design, believed to date to the 1850s to 1880s. The building was sympathetically refurbished and converted into individual hybrid units by the current owners.
The building is of whinstone construction with 23 bay equal-sided double-pitched piended slate roofs incorporating renewed polycarbonate sheeted roof lights to the east pitches and conical ventilators. The roof trusses are supported on cast iron columns
It comprises two interlinked units and one individual unit each with plastisol coated aluminium framed double-glazed double doors to the front elevation with sliding timber panelled external door to the front elevation.
Accommodation
The door openings are approximately 2.15 m high x 2.29 m wide. A WC is provided to the rear of Units 2 and 3 which are each fitted to an accessible standard with low flush unit, wash hand basin and handrails.
The rear section of Unit 2 is currently sub-divided with a stud-partition wall to provide staff area complete with tea preparation area – this division could be removed if necessary.
Location
Forest Mill is situated within Riverside Business Park to the north west of Selkirk. Selkirk has a population of 5,430 according to the 2020 Mid-Year Population Estimate compiled by the General Records of Scotland, a decrease of 6.06% over that recorded at the 2011 Population Census (5,780). The Town is conveniently situated within the centre of the Scottish Borders with good road links to the main towns in the area and the National Roads Network via the A7 arterial route. The Town is approximately five miles to the south of Galashiels and eleven miles to the north of Hawick – the two largest population centres within the Scottish Borders with populations around 14,000 and 16,000 respectively. The riverside area of Selkirk is now considered one of the regions principal commercial centres. It has recently benefitted from significant investment both private and public sector including Scottish Enterprise’s landmark refurbishment of Ettrick Riverside into a modern business facility but also your own development at Portland Buildings and nearby redevelopment projects at Tweed Mills, Riverside Mills and Gibson Buildings at Ettrick Park.
