Davison's Mill, Stelling Minnis, Grade I listed windmill in Stelling Minnis, England.

The four-story black smock mill stands 43 feet tall on a brick base with four patent sails mounted on a cast-iron windshaft.

Thomas Holman constructed this mill in 1866, replacing an earlier open trestle post mill, and it operated commercially until autumn 1970.

The mill represents the agricultural heritage of Kent, demonstrating traditional grain processing methods that supported local food production for generations.

Visitors can explore the mill from Easter to September on Sundays and bank holidays between 2 PM and 5 PM at Stelling Minnis, Canterbury.

The structure contains the only remaining original hot-bulb auxiliary engine found in any windmill throughout the United Kingdom.
