Gibbet Mill, Grade II listed smock mill in Rye, England.
The four-story Gibbet Mill rises from a brick base, featuring traditional spring sails carried by a cast-iron windshaft and a Kentish-style cap.
Originally constructed in 1824, the mill operated by wind power until 1912, when it transformed into a bakery before burning down in 1930.
Throughout its history, multiple millers managed the operations, including Frederick Barry from 1824 to 1844 and John Smith from 1848 to 1879.
The mill currently functions as bed and breakfast accommodations, offering visitors a chance to stay within a reconstructed piece of industrial heritage.
The 1932 reconstruction includes decorative sails and a fantail that differ from traditional designs, prioritizing visual appeal over mechanical authenticity.
