Full Description
Windmill, Harwich Road.<1>
St Ann's Mill, Harwich Road. An indenture of 3rd July 1833, by which John Angier the elder conveyed to John Angier the younger the leasehold of the mill and premises on the Harwich road throws some light on the history of this site. The lease was for the remainder of a term of 1,000 years dating from 29th December 1683, and in fact the mill appeared on the maps of Ogilby and Morgan (1678) and Warburton, Bland and Smyth (c.1724). The 1833 lease recorded that the brick tower mill , known as St Ann's Mill, and then standing, had been erected by Bezaliel Angier on the site of a post mill on land named Gogglefields.<2>
