Site of Windmill 200m NW of Cherry Tree Farm, Warmington
Description of this historic site
Documentary evidence suggests that this is the site of a windmill of the post mill type. It was built in the Post Medieval period, and dismantled in 1910/11. Its location was 300m west of Church Hill.

Notes about this historic site
1 Post mill. Built 17th century. Open trestle, four common sails, roof hipped and extension at tail, two pairs of stones, ladder and tailpole. Worked until dismantled 1910-11.
2 On the top of the hill at SP4047 is a field called Millfield which is presumably the site of a windmill.
3 The site was under plough when visited and there was only a slight undulation which could indicate the mill site.
