Cawston Road Mill, Aylsham, Tower windmill in Aylsham, England

The seven-story brick tower mill stands tall with its distinctive eight-bladed fantail, showcasing traditional Norfolk mill architecture.

Built in 1826 by Henry Soame, the mill operated as a flour production facility with three pairs of millstones until the early 1900s.

The structure represents Norfolk's industrial heritage, transforming from a working flour mill into modern holiday accommodations while preserving its original features.

The converted windmill offers three bedrooms with en-suite facilities, a fully equipped kitchen, and high-speed internet access for up to six guests.

During World War I, the Royal Army Veterinary Corps repurposed the mill structure for military operations and soldier accommodation.
