Terling Windmill, Historical windmill in Terling, England
The four-story smock mill stands on an octagonal brick base, featuring double Patent sails and an aluminum-clad cap reaching toward the Essex sky.
Built around 1818 as a bark mill, the structure later transformed into a grain processing facility and continued operations until a tragic accident in 1950.
The windmill gained recognition in British cinema when it appeared as a filming location in the 1937 movie 'Oh, Mr. Porter!' starring Will Hay.
The structure, now converted into a private residence, remains visible from public roads while maintaining its external historical characteristics and internal machinery.
The last working sails of this Grade II listed building came from two separate East Anglian mills, creating an unexpected combination of historical components.
