Monument record TR 16 NW 85 - Post medieval windmill, Whistable

Summary

Borstallhill windmill. A smock mill built in 1815. The mill was at first white, but in 1885, the mill was tarred, and so changed colour to black. The mill was last worked in 1905. The house was added to the mill in 1928, and it appears in one of Turner's carvings of Whitstable of 1830.
