St Martin's Mill is a Grade II listed converted tower mill in Canterbury, Kent, England.
St Martin's Mill was built in 1817 by John Adams. It was working until 1890 and was converted into a house by a Mr Couzens in 1920.[1] There was a proposal to demolish the building in April 1958, but a preservation order was placed on the windmill by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government.[2] The mill lost its sails in the great storm of 1987 and they have not been replaced.
St Martins Mill is a four-storey brick tower mill, rendered with cement. It had a Kentish-style cap, four single patent sails and was winded by a fantail.[3] There was a stage at first-floor level.[4] The windshaft is of cast iron. The brake wheel and wallower survive, as does the drive to the sack hoist. The mill drove three pairs of stones.[2]
