Hidden away at the top of Miswell Lane just before it meets Icknield Way, is Tring's sole remaining Windmill. It has no sails though, and is now a private house. According to the book "Hertfordshire Windmills and Millers" it has had the following millers: James Grover (1839-61) William Grover (1861-80) Thomas Liddington (1880-85) White & Putnam (1885-95) James Wright (1895-1908) Lots more information about the mill here https://tringhistory.tringlocalhistorymuseum.org.uk/Windmills/c_chapter_08.htm
