Dobson's Windmill, Grade I listed windmill in Burgh Le Marsh, England.
The five-story brick tower windmill features five sails that turn clockwise and contains three sets of millstones for grinding wheat and corn.
Constructed by millwright Sam Oxley in the early 1800s and completed by 1844, the mill operated commercially until the 1960s under the Dobson family ownership.
The mill represents a vital part of Lincolnshire's agricultural heritage, demonstrating the traditional methods of grain processing that supported local communities.
The Burgh Le Marsh Heritage Group maintains the windmill, which sustained damage in 2020 and currently undergoes restoration work scheduled for completion in 2026.
The structure incorporates a ground floor opening that previously housed a steam traction engine, which powered an additional set of millstones for increased production capacity.
