Description

The Windmill is a tower windmill dating to around 1840, with alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed of tarred red brick and features a raised eaves band. The windmill stands four storeys high. The ground floor has two doorways, each fitted with double-glazed, multi-paned doors, along with one single-paned casement window. The first, second, and third floors each have two similar casement windows, which are slightly smaller than those on the ground floor. All openings are framed by segmental arches. Modern extensions are attached to the right or west side, and are not included as part of this listing.

Local climate

The Windmill sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 94% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
