Argos Hill Mill, Mayfield, Post mill in Argos Hill, East Sussex, England

The mill stands with four patent sails mounted on a cast iron windshaft, featuring a distinctive single-storey roundhouse and tailpole-mounted fantail.

Constructed between 1831 and 1834, the Argos Hill Mill operated commercially until 1923, when it ceased its grain processing operations.

The Grade II* listed windmill represents traditional Sussex millwrighting techniques and remains one of only fifty post mills still standing in England.

The Argos Hill Windmill Trust organizes scheduled open days throughout 2024, allowing visitors to explore the internal mechanisms and external features.

The main post consists of four separate timber pieces, making it one of only two windmills in England with this specific construction method.
