Post Mill • Drinkstone


Post Mill

Grade I listed. The oldest windmill in Suffolk, and potentially the country. Ring dating on the main post shows the tree was felled in around 1587, with other timbers of a similar age. It was still in use until the 1970s, after which it has been in a fluctuating state of restoration. 

The above image comes from the Jeevar Archive. It's was taken in April 1982.
