The windmill in Moulton Chapel was built in 1865 to replace a Post Mill. It worked until about 1930 by wind and then by engine for a number of years. The sails were taken off in about 1938 after gale damage and it was later largely dismantled. It was driven by electricity in the 1950s but eventually fell into disuse. It is now undergoing gradual house conversion by its owner. The only gear to survive is one pair of grey stones, with the stone nut replaced by a pulley. There were two pairs of grey stones and one pair of french stones, together with another pair of grey stones on a ground floor hurst which was engine powered. The tower has lost about four feet in height but still contains all the floors and it is in these that most the mill's interest lies. The fourth floor beams are the tarred oak sheers of the old Post Mill, with clear wear marks visible where the post and collar rubbed; the fifth floor beams are cut from an old stock, still with its white paint on. {1}
