Church End Mill, Tower mill in Great Dunmow, England.
Church End Mill is a four-story tower mill featuring a tapered brick structure topped with a conical cap and ball finial. The building displays typical windmill design and now serves as a residential property.
The mill was built in 1822 by William Redington for John Fuller using machinery from an existing mill. Later it stopped operating commercially and the building found different uses.
The building shows how working mills transformed into homes and studios as industries changed. People adapted these structures to serve their communities in entirely new ways over time.
The property is now a private residence and its Grade II listed status requires permission for any modifications. Visitors can view it from the street and appreciate its architectural features from outside.
The mill experienced a dramatic incident when its cast iron windshaft broke during a storm. The sails collapsed onto the nearby outbuildings causing considerable damage.
