Bourn Mill, Bourn, Cambridgeshire
First mentioned in a deed of 1636, this post mill is one of several claiming to be the oldest in the country. It was in continuous use until 1925, although it was blown down in 1741 and has been restored several times. A Grade 1 Listed Building, it was purchased by the Cambridge Preservation Society in 1932.
