A derelict woollen mill on an island prone to flooding was sensitively remodelled with a cedar-clad stair extension to preserve the interior spaces. The mill workings were repaired and upgraded to provide electricity and the fine interior provides a spacious and comfortable home with wings for a separate dwelling and workspaces.
Hydro - the existing 1910 Canadian turbine was repaired, enabling the Mill to become self-sufficient in electricity.
