More about this scene
Union Mill is a white weatherboarded Kentish-style smock mill on a three-storey octagonal brick base with a staging. It has four patent shuttered sails and a fantail. It is the tallest smock mill in Britain, measuring 72 feet from ground level to the ridge of the cap. It was built in 1814, and ceased trading in 1950. The mill has now been restored to full working order and is open to visitors.
