Lowson's Mill, or Westwood Mill, is first mentioned in 1802 when George Jakeman was permitted to have a cart-road (extant today) from Keldgate Road to the windmill he had erected in his close, adjoining but not actually part of the Westwood. It was a brick tower mill with five sails. The mill was dismantled in 1891 and today only the lower part of the tower remains, adjoining the rear of the private house, still known as Lowson's Mill.
