Ingleborough Tower Windmill, Tower mill in West Walton, England

The Ingleborough Tower Windmill rises eight stories high with red brick walls that narrow toward the top and features multiple segmental-headed windows.

Built in 1824, this Grade II listed structure operated with six sails until 1940 and combined wind power with steam operations by 1904.

The mill served as a central point for local grain processing, connecting farmers, millers, and bakers throughout the Norfolk agricultural community.

The interior maintains its original floors and stairways across seven levels, though all milling machinery has been removed from the building.

The mill contained four pairs of grinding stones on its second floor, including three French burr stones and one Peak stone for different grain processing.
