Haddenham Mill, 1974 (MoC 550/74)Haddenham Mill & Mill House
History of Haddenham Mill
Listed building
The windmill at Haddenham, also known as Great Mill, is one of four surviving complete tower mills in Cambridgeshire, and dates to 1803. The mill was built for Daniel Cockle, and was operated by the Cockle family and successive owners until just after the end of the Second World War, after which time it remained unused and unmaintained. The mill sails were blown off in 1969, followed by the collapse of the mill cap and fantail.
In the photo the stone above the door bears the date 1807.
