Full Description
'Windmill (disused).'{1}
Now seems to have been built over by new buildings at Northgate Corn Mills. {2}
Northgate Mill was built in 1848 to replace a post mill, this tower mill worked until 1922 by wind, carrying on by engine for a number of years afterwards. It was gutted in the mid 1930s and is now (1984) used for storage in connection with the modern mill in the adjacent buildings. It had four patent sails and drove four pairs of stones. {3}
A photographic recording was undertaken at Miller's Cottage and of the mill in December 2008. None of the internal fittings of the mill survive apart from a winch. {4}{5}
