EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print transports us back in time to the quaint village of Clayton, Sussex, in the 1930s. In the heart of the picturesque landscape, we find Jill, one of the two iconic windmills that have come to define this charming location. Jill, fondly known as the sister mill to Jack, stands proudly against the backdrop of the South Downs. Jill's history is deeply rooted in the rich industrial heritage of Sussex. She was meticulously crafted in Brighton in 1821, a time when windmills were an essential part of the rural economy. The mill, with its distinctive sails and conical cap, was designed to harness the power of the wind and grind grain into flour for local consumption. The journey of Jill from Brighton to Clayton was no small feat. In an impressive display of human ingenuity and perseverance, the mill was dragged to its new home by a team of strong oxen. The photograph captures a moment in time when the windmill, now a cherished piece of local history, still held the power to generate awe and admiration. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of the simple beauty of rural life and the enduring legacy of the windmills. Jill, with her timeless charm, continues to be a beloved icon of Sussex, a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the past.
