The mill, built in c. 1822 by Robert King, was a fully functioning windmill, grinding wheat and other products.A local campaign was established to restore the Grade I listed mill to full working condition.The project won a large Heritage Lottery Fund grant, which, along with many fundraising events has meant that the "Friends of Moulton Mill" campaign has succeeded in raising enough money to restore and refurbish the mill's structure and add a new cap.The new white ogee cap, (which weighs 14 ton) is visible for miles across the flat Fenland landscape.The Friends of Moulton Mill have encouraged local people to "sponsor" a sail shutter.
