Description

This is a derelict windmill located 130 yards east of Mill House, dating from the early 18th century. It is built of brick and features a bottle-shaped, tapering tower. The superstructure and roof are missing, and the windmill stands three storeys tall. There are arched window and door openings present. Part of the sail platform and wheel mechanism remain in place, although the upper part has collapsed, leaving timbers and the mechanism lying within the tower.
