Its British Listed Building entry describes it as "Mill with attached granary and bakehouse". See http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-221955-the-mill-with-attached-granary-and-bakeh. The earliest record showing a mill present on this site is Faden's Map of Norfolk (1797). This tower mill had been built by 1824 when the first O.S. map was published. The sails were removed in 1925 but it continued to operate as a mill until 1937. It was derelict until 1980 when it was sold and converted to residential use.
