postmill |
Gaywood Wootton Road post windmill stood on the east side of the in what later became the northern suburbs of Kings Lynn. The mill was quite small and ran a single pair of French burr stones. A towermill stood on the same site although it is probable that the postmill was older and was converted from common sails to patent sails in 1819.. |
