This drainage mill was restored by the Norfolk Windmills Trust between 1981 and 2006. It is unusual in that the sails rotate in a clockwise direction unlike most mills. It worked until 1941 when new diesel engines were installed nearby.

The corrugated iron Seven Mile pumping shed houses the two Ruston Hornsby diesel engines which operated until 1984. The building was moved to its present position during flood defence works in 2003.
