GV II
Smock mill. 1802, much restored. Brick base, tarred,
weatherboarding above, also tarred. Octagonal with hooded cap.
One entrance in base blocked up, but another apparently made.
Shutters to sweeps and fantail missing. The mill went out of
use in 1881 and was restored and repaired in various ways in
1905-6, 1935, 1966, 1975 and 1988. The artist William
Nicholson used this mill as the starting-point for his design
of a windmill in silhouette which is the imprint of Messrs
Heinemann, publishers.
