Windmill for corn visible on the Ordnance Survey 1877 edition [1]. It was no longer visible on the Ordnance Survey 1899 edition [2] or OS MasterMap dating to 2009 [3].

The windmill is possibly first shown on the OS drawing of 1797. It appears on the Tithe Map of the 1842. It was probably demolished in the last quarter of the 19th century.
