Lead mill on the north bank of Bar Brook, located 80 metres east of its confluence with Sandyford Brook near Sheffield, Derbyshire, is a post-medieval industrial site associated with lead processing. The mill represents evidence of the region's historical exploitation of lead ore, which was extracted and processed in the Peak District and surrounding areas during the early modern period. The site's location on Bar Brook reflects the typical siting of such mills near watercourses, which provided essential power for grinding and processing operations. The surviving remains contribute to the archaeological record of Derbyshire's non-ferrous metal industries.
