A 4-storey smock mill, built about 1650. Last worked about 1915. Believed to be England's
oldest surviving smock mill. Restored to turning order by the Chiltern Society since 1971.
However, due to the age of the machinery, it has now been decided that we will
not let the wind turn the sails any more
