Built in 1665, Outwood Windmill is Britain's oldest working windmill and is Grade I listed. Designed by Thomas Budgen, there were originally two mills, but unfortunately, the taller of the two collapsed in 1960. It is said that the builders could see the glow of London burning in the distance as they constructed the mill at the same time as the Great Fires of London.

The mill is privately owned so you can't go inside, but it is nonetheless a very interesting historical place to visit.

Outwood Windmill is a Grade I listed post mill located in Outwood, Surrey, England. It was built in 1665 by Thomas Budgen, a miller from Nutfield in Surrey, and is Britain’s oldest working windmill. The mill is a post mill with patent shutters and has four sails. The whole body, weighing around 25 tons, rotates on a central post made of a single enormous oak tree, to bring the mill round into the wind. The mill is still operational and grinds corn when the wind is adequate.
