Hickling Mill, Tower mill in Hickling Heath, Norfolk, England.

The eight-story circular tower mill rises 71 feet high, with a Norfolk boat-shaped cap and thick brick walls measuring 30 inches at the base.

Built in 1818, Hickling Mill operated as a corn grinding facility until 1904, when its sails and fantail were removed following the end of milling operations.

The mill represents Norfolk's agricultural heritage through its preserved machinery and structure, demonstrating 19th-century engineering and construction methods in England.

The Grade II* listed status ensures protection of the structure, requiring specific permissions and conservation methods for any modifications or repairs to the building.

The mill retains its original internal machinery, including three pairs of French burr stones, two flour mills, and an eight-bladed fan mechanism.
