Farndon Windmill Farndon · Nottinghamshire · England

Farndon Windmill stands on Crees Lane at Farndon, between Newark and the River Trent. It was built as a tower corn mill in 1823. A datestone over the west door carries the date, and contemporary descriptions associate the initials on the stone with James Dyke. The tower is a five-stage battered round structure with a plinth and dentillated curb. Its openings have segmental heads, with doors to the east and west and irregularly staggered windows on each floor. Some east-side windows were later replaced by smaller twentieth-century casements.

The mill was known as Farndon Windmill and was recorded as a corn mill in specialist catalogues. It had lost its sails and wooden cap by the later twentieth century. A 1930s archive description stated that the mill was dated 1823, had ceased to work by the end of the war, and had its arms dismantled, while the machinery was then described as intact. Later heritage descriptions recorded floors inside but no machinery. It was first listed at Grade II on 13 August 1992. By the early twenty-first century it was described as disused and requiring major renovation.
