EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque countryside of Crowfield, Suffolk. Standing tall against the vast open sky is the magnificent Windmill, a true symbol of both functionality and beauty. Originally built as a drainage mill near Yarmouth, this smock mill was later relocated and transformed into a cereal mill around 1840. The history etched within its weathered walls tells tales of resilience and adaptation. In 1916, during a fierce storm, its cap was forcefully blown off. Undeterred by this setback, the windmill persevered with an engine until 1935, continuing to serve its purpose faithfully. Photographed by Herbert Edward Sidney Simmons in June 1939, this image captures not only the grandeur of the windmill but also offers glimpses into daily life at that time. A horse stands gracefully nearby; perhaps it played a crucial role in powering this marvel of engineering. As we admire this snapshot from Historic England's collection, let us appreciate how human ingenuity has shaped our landscapes throughout history. The Windmill at Crowfield stands as a testament to our ability to adapt and repurpose structures for new uses while preserving their historical significance.
