Chilton Street Mill

The five-story brick tower mill stands on Chilton Street with a distinctive dome cap and features architectural elements typical of 19th-century Suffolk milling structures.

Built in 1846, the mill operated until its sails detached prior to World War I, after which the internal machinery was removed during the 1920s.

The mill served as a central point for local grain processing, supporting the agricultural activities of Clare's farming community throughout the Victorian period.

Located at coordinates 52°05′42″N 0°33′57″E, the mill structure remains accessible for external viewing as a testament to industrial heritage.

The mill's original configuration included four Patent sails that powered two pairs of millstones for grain processing operations.
