Windmill sited here according to Ordnance Survey.
No trace on ground of this. Informant has noted no information on it.
Is there confusion between this and sites NHER 15264-5 due to (S1) mistakes?
E. Rose (NAU) 18 May 1983.

Reference (S2) in file states that this mill, of which the miller's house remains, was built in 1854, lost its sails in 1917 and was demolished in 1945. This is clearly a different mill therefore from NHER 15264, though there might still be some confusion with NHER 15265 on which [1] had no records either.
