Description
Burgh Mill is a tower mill built in 1842 by John Whitmore, a millwright from Wickham Market. It is constructed of white Flemish bond brick and has seven floors with battered walls. The mill features openings on four sides, some of which are blocked in the top three stages, all having cambered heads and cross windows. The upper body shows signs of spalled brick. The cap, sails, and all internal machinery have been removed. To the north of the mill, there is a two-storey store building, and to the west, there is an engine house.
Local climate
Burgh Mill sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 680 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 61% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 18 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 82% of listed buildings. Of these, 9 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.
