Great Snoring's Old Windmill

Great Snoring grist mill was actually just in the parish of Little Snoring and was described as newly erected in 1808 and was an open trestle mill, not having a roundhouse.

From around 1900 it only had one pair of double shuttered sails. Still almost complete in 1924, it had lost the fantail and the roof by 1926 and the body blew over in 1930.
