Full Description

{1} A brick-built tower mill with a wood-framed conical cap and a fantail. Cast iron cannister for holding the four sails. Now demolished.

[SMR note 17/02/2011: Google Earth imagery (May 2009) suggests that the foundations of the tower mill appear to survive within the back garden of the current 'Mill House'. There is also a similar circular feature in a grass field c.70m to the south east which may be an earlier windmill.]
