Blyton Windmill

Built in 1825 this tower mill worked until 1910 by wind. It carried on by engine, followed by electricity, until the late 1960's. A new observatory-type top was put on in 1974 and the tower is now preserved. There were four patent sails, driving three pairs of stones. Now a private house
