West Blatchington Windmill, Grade II* listed windmill in Brighton and Hove, England.

The West Blatchington Windmill spreads across five floors, containing authentic mill workings that demonstrate traditional grain processing methods from the 1820s.

The mill operated until 1897 when two sails sustained damage, leading to its acquisition by Hove Corporation in 1937 for preservation purposes.

Through educational exhibits and displays, the mill presents the agricultural heritage and traditional milling techniques that shaped local food production.

The mill welcomes visitors from May to September on Sundays and Bank Holidays between 2:30 PM and 5:00 PM, with admission fees required.

Unlike most smock mills that follow an octagonal design, this structure features a distinctive hexagonal plan with a three-story brick base.
