EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Sarre Windmill in all its glory. Taken in 1929 by Francis Matthew Shea, it showcases the smock mill standing proudly against the backdrop of Canterbury Road in Sarre, Thanet, Kent. The absence of sails on this iconic windmill allows us to appreciate its intricate design and architectural details. Built in 1820 for the purpose of grinding corn, Sarre Windmill served as a vital hub for agricultural activities during its operational years. However, with advancements in technology, it ceased working with wind power in 1922 and eventually came to a complete halt in 1940. Fortunately, this historic landmark was not forgotten. Thanks to dedicated restoration efforts, Sarre Windmill was brought back to life and resumed operations once again in 1992. Its revival is a testament to our commitment towards preserving our heritage and ensuring that future generations can witness the ingenuity of past centuries. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era when windmills dotted the countryside - symbols of self-sufficiency and hard work. The Georgian-style architecture adds an elegant touch to this rural landscape while reminding us of England's rich history. Francis Matthew Shea's photograph immortalizes Sarre Windmill as more than just a structure; it represents resilience and adaptability amidst changing times. It serves as a reminder that even though progress may alter our landscapes, there will always be those who strive to preserve our cultural treasures
