Baxterley Windmill

1 A derelict windmill, now a skeleton of close-set timber-framing.
2 Built ‘J.B.1793’, open trestle, four common sails, ladder and tailpole. Ceased work by 1880’s. Cleared away c1969. Main post used for reconstruction of Danzey Green Mill at Avoncroft Museum.
3 The windmill blew down on Feb. 6th 1946 while it was in the process of being drawn. There was some discussion about re-erecting it, but this was never done. Much of the machinery was taken away and burned for firewood.
4 Correspondence from between 1964 and 1969 about the history of the windmill, the surviving remains, drawings, and a proposed model.
