Chillenden Windmill

[2] Chillenden windmill was built by Holman's of Canterbury[3] in 1868, replacing an earlier post mill that had blown down.[8] The mill wreckage was carefully dismantled on 15 December 2003[9] and put into storage while a decision was made on the future of the building.The work included new crosstrees and quarter bars, a new windshaft, both breast and tail of the mill rebuilt and new weatherboarding all over.[11] Chillenden windmill is a white open-trestle post mill with four spring sails carried on a cast-iron windshaft.This carries a cast-iron great spur wheel which drives two pairs of underdrift millstones in the head of the mill.
