A post mill was working in Rackheath during the 1200s |
And in the 53d of Henry III (1268-9) Roesia de Blakenham granted by fine to Robert de Martham a windmill in Rackheath Magna with the whole suit of all her men, paying one mark per ann. for ever, Robert agreeing that she and her heirs and the whole family living in her court and belonging to her or her heirs should have the first grinding therat and toll free, as often as they sent any of their family to the mill and if denied they might distreyn Robert on his land at Rackheath Magna and Martham. |
