Surrounded by a cluster of farm buildings and houses > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4894123 to the east of Horning Road this former corn mill comprises quite a small four-storey tarred red brick tower built during the first quarter of the 1800s, replacing an earlier postmill. The tower originally had a Norfolk boat-shaped cap with a petticoat, a gallery and a six-bladed, left-handed fan that was installed in about 1845. The external pulley wheel, used to supply power via an auxiliary steam engine which had been installed in about 1883, is still in place and can be seen here (at left).
