Description: | Windmills need to be positioned on high ground with plenty of exposure to the wind. Because of this they are prone to excessive weather damage. This mill was worked up until the 1880s by George Nicholls, the last miller. By 1890 it was so badly damaged that demolition was considered. It was eventually restored in 1936, just before this picture was taken. | Subjects: | Agriculture Renovation Weatherboarding Corn Mill Sail Windmill Smock Mill Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Simmons, H E S | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
