Description
The Mill is a tower mill built in 1821. It is constructed of red brick and features a conical felt roof. The mill has three stages and displays corbelled out eaves. It includes a planked door and two-light windows set under segmental arches. The interior was not inspected. Inside, there are two pairs of stones, a wooden great spur wheel, and an upright shaft. The tower mill was operational until the early 1930s when the sails blew off.
