Lowfield Heath Windmill, Post mill in Charlwood, England
The windmill contains four distinct floors connected by an external staircase to the second level and internal ladders to reach upper sections.
Built in 1737, the structure operated until 1880 by wind power, then continued grinding with steam-driven stones in the roundhouse until 1890.
The windmill stands as an example of traditional milling technology, demonstrating the engineering methods used for grain processing in rural England.
Visitors can explore the mill between May and August on the last Sunday of each month from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
Local volunteers spent thirteen years taking apart, repairing, and reconstructing the entire structure to preserve this piece of industrial heritage.
