DescriptionThe shell of a circular, two-storeyed tower mill stands about 25ft high and 20ft wide. The remains are of a type of primitive, shorter, parallel-sided mill, similar to those across the Bristol Channel in Somerset. Inside there are openings where timbers were once fixed, and a ledge, where the walls reduce in thickness, marks the position of a floor now disappeared. It may be the mill marked on Emmanuel Bowen's map of 1729, and it is depicted and annotated as 'Old Windmill' on the Ordnance Survey 25in County series mapping of 1878. Some 200m to the east-sout-east is another windmill tower (NPRN 33251).
