Description
The Baker Street Windmill, believed to date from 1674, is an octagonal, two-storey smock mill that features weatherboarding and is set on a two-storey brick base. There are remains of a gallery at the first-floor end. Adjacent to the windmill is a mid-19th century engine shed constructed of red brick. Both structures are currently in a ruinous condition.
