Since its closure in 2001 (with the loss of approximately 250 jobs), all the mill buildings have been cleared, and the site has been redeveloped as an "urban village" The mill was developed to produce off-machine coated grades of paper.

In 2016 a hydro electric turbine was installed on the site by Aberdeen Community Energy (www.acenegy.org.uk).

The installation revealed an old lade which had previously delivered water to the paper mill.
