Description

Seadike Mill is a tower windmill built in 1836 for Mr. Rubbins. It is constructed of partially tarred red brick and features a moulded eaves band. The mill is circular and consists of seven storeys. The west side has a doorway with panelled double doors, which has a keystone inscribed 'C.I.R. 1836'. Above this doorway is a single window opening, along with another doorway that has a plank door, and four window openings arranged one above the other. The north and east sides each have six window openings stacked vertically, with a doorway located on the second floor. The south side has seven window openings arranged similarly. All openings have segmental heads and ashlar keystones. Inside, most of the milling machinery is reported to be intact, including two pairs of French stones and two pairs of grey stones, with a shoot that goes down to the ground floor. Ladders inside the mill are noted to be insecure.

Local climate

Seadike 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 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 77% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 27 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
