Baker Street Windmill
This is a photograph before the cap and sails were restored. At an earlier stage it had been comprehensively derelict. It is now converted to a dwelling but retains much of the original machinery and is most interesting.

Baker Street Mill - incomplete beam engine
This complex consist of a smock type windmill and an adjoining steam mill that was powered by this beam engine. The site was allowed to become very derelict but was ultimately restored as a private dwelling while retaining the machinery. This visit was with the permission of the then owner but since then it has been advertised for sale and interior pictures have appeared on websites for the sale. There is also a fine picture in Colin Bowden's book - The End of a Revolution.
The beam engine is probably c1840 and was built by Thomas Middleton of Southwark. The slide valve cylinder is 9" x 24" and the flywheel is 8' diameter. The engine has lost its beam, connecting rod, eccentric rod and governor. It is plumbed up to a locomotive type boiler that replaced the original boiler in 1906. Steam milling ceased by about 1910 and the windmill ceased work c1914-15.
