Ripple Mill There are three main types of windmill in Great Britain: post mills, smock mills and tower mills.

The smock mill is of a timber-framed construction with weatherboarded, steeply sloping external walls.  It was built on a brick base.  A pivoting wooden top with sails moved independently of the main structure so that the sails could be positioned towards the wind.  This was controlled by a tail fan.
