Description
The building is a windmill, a fine example of a red brick circular tower mill with a weatherboarded boat-shaped cap. The sails are still in place, although the mill was converted to steam in the early 20th century. It is no longer operational but has been well restored. The mill likely dates from the 18th century or early 19th century.
