Norfolk Windmills

Yaxham smockmill was originally in Paper Street and Reuben Tilney was miller from 1845 - 1853. William Critoph then bought the mill and in 1860 before moving it to his own property that he had recently acquired, complete with a postmill in 1857. He then built a towermilll using timber sawn on a bench within the smockmill. Thus at that time, uniquely, he had one of each of the three main types of windmills on the same property.
