EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to August 1932, capturing the essence of East Mill (also known as Black Mill or Smarden Bell Mill) in all its glory. Located on Mill Lane, Smarden, Ashford, Kent, this smock mill stands tall against the picturesque countryside backdrop. Built during the early 1800s, East Mill showcases exquisite Georgian architecture that is both elegant and sturdy. The smock mill's intricate design is beautifully preserved in this image by Francis Matthew Shea. Despite being disused at the time of photography, it still retains its grandeur and charm. The photographer skillfully captures every detail of this historic structure - from its rotating cap with four sails to the timber framework that supports it. The surrounding landscape adds a touch of serenity to the scene as nature embraces this majestic windmill. It is fascinating to note that although East Mill was intact when photographed in 1932, it had vanished without a trace before 1953. This photograph serves as a valuable record of an architectural gem lost to time. Francis Matthew Shea's lens immortalizes not just a building but also an era gone by – one where windmills were essential for grinding corn and sustaining rural communities. This remarkable print invites us to reflect upon our rich heritage while appreciating the beauty found within forgotten corners of England's history.
