Description
This is a tower mill located about 230 metres to the west of Roundabout Plantation, dating from the early 19th century. The mill is constructed of red brick and retains some iron and wood fittings. It features a tall, circular, tapering brick tower. The ogee cap has been removed, leaving behind the remains of the curb, frame, and part of the fantail structure. The tower now stands as a shell, with plain openings that have flat arches.
