UNION MILL, THE HILL, CRANBROOK, TUNBRIDGE WELLS, KENT. A view of Union Mill from the south, showing the smock mill intact, photographed in August 1932. This smock mill was built in 1814. When the photograph was taken it was a working mill but by 1952, when it was designated as a listed building, it was mostly run by electricity rather than by wind-power. The mill was repaired in the late 1950s and further major work was carried out in the early 2000s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Union Mill, nestled on The Hill in Cranbrook, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Taken in August 1932, the image showcases the smock mill standing proudly against a picturesque backdrop. Built in 1814, this Georgian corn mill has witnessed centuries of history unfold. At the time of this photograph, Union Mill was still an active working mill. However, by 1952 it had transitioned to predominantly using electricity instead of relying solely on wind-power. Recognizing its historical significance and architectural charm, the mill was designated as a listed building that same year. Over time, preservation efforts were undertaken to ensure Union Mill's longevity. In the late 1950s, repairs were carried out to maintain its structural integrity. Further extensive restoration work took place during the early 2000s. Francis Matthew Shea expertly captured this moment frozen in time with his camera lens. His skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of Union Mill but also its role as a testament to our industrial heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are reminded of both our past and our responsibility to safeguard these historic treasures for future generations.
