From the Wikipedia article

Outwood Windmill is a Grade I listed post mill in Outwood, Surrey. Built in 1665 by Thomas Budgen, a miller from Nutfield in Surrey, it is Britain's oldest working windmill. It was one of a pair after 1797, alongside a smock mill that had the tallest smock tower in the United Kingdom until its collapse in 1960.
