More about this scene

Denver Mill is a tall brick tower mill with four patent shuttered sails and a fantail. The brickwork is rendered all over to assist with weather protection. The mill is shown in the photograph at a time when it was still trading, but not using windpower. Built in 1835, it ceased work by wind in 1941. Now restored complete, and demonstrated in working order, it is open to visitors.
