From the Wikipedia article

The Old Mill, Ruthin, Denbighshire, North Wales, probably dates from around 1300. The Warden of Ruthin, the early 19th-century Archdeacon Newcome, noted that the building had been used as a garrison chapel. There are two early English pointed arches and one gable end has a blocked lancet window, with a sunken cross above. The watermill was removed from the mill during the 1950s (the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales says c. 1947) and Mill Street runs to the side of the old mill. It was designated as a Grade II listed building on 24 October 1950.
