More about this scene

Around the village green stands this collection of cottages leading back to St Michael's Church (1552). There has been milling here in the village since the 14th century. The present mill was built in 1821; it had four sails each weighing 1.25 tons. The windmill was used as a fire watching post during the last war, and has now been preserved as a working museum of rural life.
