I'm really surprised that this mill has baffled everyone so far - including myself. The fantail arrangement is reminiscent of some West Kent/ East Sussex post mills such as Winchelsea, Icklesham Hogg Hill, Lydd post mill and others. The notch at the bottom of the buck also points to South East England. However, the windows are definitely not from these parts and would point to it being East Anglian - possibly Essex.
The photograph is not particularly old which points to the mill standing well into the 20th century. How can it have managed to get under everyone's radar?
I'm intrigued by this and really hope it can be named.
