- For more than 130 years the wooden Smock Mill, so named because it is shaped like an agricultural worker’s smock, produced flour for the people of Upminster.
- It is a Grade II* listed building and in terms of quality, completeness and significance it is widely considered to be amongst the very best remaining English smock mills.
- The windmill is currently being restored to working order.
