Cutmaple Mill, Essex, 1935. Artist: HES Simmons


Cutmaple Mill, Essex, 1935. The exterior of this brick and timber post mill is seen here in a derelict state with much of the weather boarding missing from the upper storey and the sails broken. To the left is a haystack. Post mills are mounted on a post which rotates on a base, allowing the sails to face into the wind.
