Cranbrook Union Windmill

Built in 1814, it is the 2nd tallest windmill and the tallest smock mill in England at almost 22 metres (72 feet) high. It has nine different levels. It is a working mill run by volunteers and is open to the public at weekends, Bank Holiday Mondays and by appointment, from March to September.

The windmill is own by Tunbridge Wells Borough Council who took it over in 1960 and later restored it. For more information LinkExternal link
