Full Description
Windmill, headcorn
A smock mill built in the 1760's - it appears as a new mill on a 1769 map. In 1846 a steam mill was also installed to work alongside the mill, so that five pairs of stones were working in all. The mill ceased to work in about 1890 and was pulled down completely in 1910.
