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.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

My father worked at the mill in approximately 1958. I recall it being repaired by Dutch engineers at that time. Next door was a grocer's shop, but I cannot remember the name. We lived at the time near Goudhurst. What a terrific place for a young person to play!
