More about this scene
Here we see a fine example of a white weatherboarded Kentish smock mill with a two-storey square brick base and wooden staging for access to the sails. It is powered by four patent shuttered sails and winded by a fantail. Dated 1869, it worked to 1938. It is now restored to full working order and is open to visitors.
