Description
Square, coped brick stalk of Prinlaws Mill.
No other parts of Prinlaws Mill (flax spinning and bleaching) remain, but this may belong to the West Mill built in 1836; the North mill being added in 1853. Prinlaws was a separate entity to Leslie, set up as a works village with its own amenities. (Historic Scotland)
