Full Description
{1-4} A windmill is shown on the early 19th-century Ordnance Survey drawing. In 1886 it is marked as disused and by 1962 it is not marked at all. Lidar imagery shows disturbed ground here although aerial imagery dating back to the early 2000s indicates that the site has been cleared and subsequently used for storage (mainly of silage).
