A wide loop in the burn to the W of Bellsgrove Lodge. The neck has been cut through by a water leat 45m long, and up to 2m wide and 1m deep. The dam consists of little more than a line of rough boulders about 28m in length with a V-shaped indentation 4m long where the burn passes through. The mill pond was very shallow and could never have held much water. No sign of there ever having been a mill, and the function of the structure remains obscure.
