Background
History
Hurt Wood Mill was built in 1845, replacing a post mill that had been blown down. The post mill was standing in 1648. The mill worked by wind until c1885 and the sails and fantail were removed shortly afterwards. The mill house was converted at some point, with two new sails being fitted in 1914. In 1937 four new sails and two new stocks were fitted by Neve's, the Heathfield millwrights.
Description
Hurt Wood Mill is a four-storey brick tower mill with an ogee cap. It had four Patent sails carried on a cast iron windshaft. The cap was winded by a fantail. The clasp arm Brake Wheel is wooden. When the mill was a working mill, it had sails that rotated anticlockwise, but those fitted in 1937 would have rotated clockwise had they been a working set.
