Little Marton windmill A Grade II Listed tower mill from the 1830s. This has only recently lost its sails and they are to be replaced. Much of the machinery is missing but there were four sets of stones and there is a replica of one set. The upper part of the tower contains more machinery but due to a shortage of volunteers there was no access above the stone floor - disappointing.
