EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the beauty and historical significance of Nutley Windmill, one of the few remaining "pin" windmills in Sussex. Standing proudly in a picturesque setting overlooking Ashdown Forest, this mill is not only the last open-trestle post mill in Sussex but also one of only five surviving examples in the entire country. Dating back to the 12th century, Nutley Windmill showcases an exquisite design that has stood the test of time. Its open trestle structure makes it a remarkable representation of the oldest post mill design known in England. What sets this windmill apart from others is its functionality - it is still fully operational today. The photographer behind this extraordinary image is John Fletcher, whose collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" offers a glimpse into the rich history and natural wonders of West Sussex. This particular photograph can be found within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection under reference number PH 26115/19. As part of their commitment to preserving local heritage, West Sussex County Council shares this print with pride. While commercial use may not be permitted without permission, they aim to celebrate and educate others about Nutley Windmill's unique place within British history as an iconic symbol of traditional milling techniques.
