Description

Green's Mill is a windmill built around 1807 for George Green. It was burnt out in 1947 and restored to working order between 1981 and 1986, becoming part of a museum. The structure features a battered round brick tower with five stages, each having renewed staggered casement windows. There are two board doors located at ground level and on the first stage, along with a circular wooden gallery on the first stage. The mill has an ogee wooden cap topped with a finial, a fantail, and four sails—two spring sails and two common sails. While the tower is original, the floors, gallery, cap, and sails have been renewed.

Inside, the mill contains the complete equipment of a 19th-century working mill, with machinery mainly from the 19th century that has been relocated from various mills. The mill is regularly used for grinding domestic flour. This windmill is representative of many similar structures built in the East Midlands during the Napoleonic Wars.

Local climate

Green's Mill sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 86% 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 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
