Bio
White Mill is a smock mill which retains its original wooden machinery and was restored between 1960 and 1961 by millwright Vincent Pargeter. It is surrounded by the original outbuildings and millers cottage. These were used by the Millers family for accommodation. There are exhibits showing how the miller and his family lived and you will be quite surprised by some of the toys and games the children used to play, which are little changed.
Although not a working windmill the machinery is kept in top condition and the sweeps are currently being refitted.
Visitors are able to go inside the windmill and view displays of agricultural machinery and equipment in the base, aswell as seeing the actual mill machinery.
