Kirton End Mill Kirton End · Lincolnshire · England

The Mill at Kirton End replaced an earlier post mill on the site. The present tower mill was built in 1833 in red brick and was tarred, a common treatment used to protect exposed Lincolnshire mill towers from weather. The listed structure is a tapering four-storey tower on Donington Road.

It worked as a wind-powered mill for more than a century and remained part of Kirton End's local agricultural economy until about 1936. At that point the sails were removed, marking the end of its wind-powered working life. The tower survived after the loss of its sails and cap and was recognised for its architectural and historic interest when it was listed Grade II in 1987.

Its survival preserves the footprint and vertical form of a nineteenth-century tower mill that succeeded the earlier post-mill phase at Kirton End. The building remains a clear historic windmill survival rather than a complete working mill.
