Garboldisham Windmill, Historic windmill in Garboldisham, England.

The circular brick roundhouse of Garboldisham Windmill supports a weatherboarded buck with a felt-covered gabled roof and internal brick piers for structural stability.

First documented in 1739, the current mill dates from 1770, when James Turner, a farmer from Blo' Norton, constructed it for grain processing.

The Grade II* listing confirms the windmill as an architectural monument that represents Norfolk's agricultural and industrial development through several centuries.

Visitors can arrange appointments to tour the mill, which operates with electric power and continues to process grain using traditional milling methods.

The internal mechanism includes two pairs of underdriven millstones connected to a great spur wheel, maintaining its original 18th-century engineering design.
