Built as a replacement for the old mill c 1850. It had a triangular cap, six floors, four patent sails, an eight-bladed fantail and four pairs of stones. It ceased work around 1895 and fell into disrepair, one of the sails being blown of in 1909 and the mill reduced to two storeys in height in 1911. The stump was used as a look out post for the Home Guard in WWII, and demolished c 1960.
