The mill is a complete working (currently needing new sails) windmill in S. Norfolk. The site is owned by the Norfolk Windmills Trust. The brick mill was built in the 1860s to replace a post mill on the same site. Once wind finished an oil driven hurst frame was used to grind flour. Billingford ceased commercial use in 1959.

The building is open at certain times of the year (check NWT website).
