Kenninghall Fersfield Road towermill stood opposite The Grange to the southeast of the village. The mill had a tarred brick tower and was only worked by wind for a few years and latterly in conjunction with the adjacent steam mill. After windmilling ceased, the steam mill continued to operate for a short time.


In 1973, Philip Unwin reported that the steam mill and the granary were still standing and that the mill had been worked by Mr. French on behalf of Selina Holman.
