Herne Mill 1938
This picture has been identified as Herne on account of the chimney on the adjacent house. It was taken by a lady from a very poor Northamptonshire family who, as a girl, was invited with her sister to seaside holidays in Dover by a relative (an uncle who had been blinded in WW1). We think she must have arrived at Herne by train, since the station is nearby. She was 18 years old in 1938.
Herne Mill is a Kentish smock windmill dating from 1789. It is Grade I listed and is owned by Kent County Council and cared for by the Friends of Herne Mill.
The latest in a long line of mills which have occupied the site for centuries, the windmill is a local landmark on the skyline above the ancient village of Herne in Kent. It can be seen from the A299 Thanet Way, which passes nearby; from the Thames Estuary where it is a ‘sea mark’ and from the countryside around.
See http://www.herne-mill.btik.com/ and http://herne-mill.btck.co.uk/TheFriendsofHerneMill. The photo has been sent to the latter for inclusion on their website, which also gives a detailed history of the windmill.
