Stanton village is situated about nine miles north-east of Bury St. Edmunds, on the A143 road to Diss. The former WW II airfield RAF Shepherds Grove, where American forces were based, is nearby. The village lies at the junction of the Peddars Way and dates back to Roman times. The present parish was formed from two earlier parishes, Stanton All Saints and Stanton St John, with John's church having been abandoned in the process.

Stanton post mill
Sadly not a first geograph but does show this fine mill from the other side. The miller is very pleasant and enthusiastic. It is worth a detour just to enjoy his company. Visited on a Heritage open Day. These are a jolly good idea but industrial heritage coverage is incredibly variable across the country.

A view of the mill on a June open day around 6pm. Note the lightning conductors on the end of the sails.

Stanton Postmill - Fantail
This was added in the early 19th modernisation. It meant the miller didn't have to push the mill into the wind with a large pole.
