Reed Mill, Tower mill in Kingston, England.

Reed Mill stands four floors high with a cylindrical stone structure designed to harness wind power through its rotating cap and sails system.

Built in the early nineteenth century, the mill operated continuously until 1915 when strong winds destroyed its cap and sails during maintenance.

The mill transformation into residential space was documented in Channel 4's The Restoration Man program, highlighting the evolution of industrial buildings.

The mill underwent complete renovation in 2010-2011, adding modern amenities including a glass conservatory and adjoining barn for residential purposes.

Three pairs of millstones powered by wind energy processed grain under the supervision of miller Daniel Gouger from 1825 to 1865.
