Description

Lings Windmill is an early 19th-century tower mill constructed of red brick in English garden wall bond. It features a four-storey truncated cone shape. On the west side, there is a segmentally-arched doorway with original window openings above it on three floors, all of which are unglazed. The top of the mill has cogged and tabled brickwork, but there is no superstructure. Similar unglazed openings can be found on various floors on the sides and rear of the building.

Local climate

Lings Windmill sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 91% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 36 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
