Description

This is a disused tower windmill, likely dating from the 18th century, which has undergone alterations. It is constructed from coursed squared magnesian limestone and has a circular plan that tapers as it rises. The windmill is situated on a mound and features a segmental vaulted passage on the south side that leads to a blocked basement doorway. There is also a blocked doorway at ground-floor level on the west side, along with various blocked square windows at different heights. An iron ladder and drainpipe are located on the east side, while the superstructure is missing.

Windmill receives an average of 750 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 71% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 93% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 39 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 75% of listed buildings. Of these, 19 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.
