Black Mill or Barham Downs Mill was a smock mill at Barham, Kent, England which was accidentally burnt down in 1970 whilst under restoration. ==History==
''Black Mill'' was the third mill on the site. There was a mill on Barham Down in the thirteenth century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Barham village website )〕 A mill was marked on Philip Symonson's map of 1596, John Speed's map of 1611, Robert Morden's map of 1695 and Emanuel Bowen's map of 1736. This mill was originally a little lower down the hill, and was moved to a new position higher up. The second mill was marked on the 1819-43 Ordnance Survey map.〔 The ''Black Mill'' was built by John Holman, the Canterbury millwright in 1834. She was worked for many years by H S Pledge, then R Walter for over 50 years, and after that by T Denne and Sons. The mill was struck by lightning on 17 June 1878 and lost a sail. Over £150 had to be spent to repair the mill.〔 The last owner, Mr E Mannering, fitted the fantail from Willesborough windmill in 1946, and restored the mill in 1956. He was awarded a Windmill Certificate by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings for his efforts. The work was done by Holman's of Canterbury, the last millwrighting they did before the firm stopped doing millwrighting work. Kent County Council contributed £400 towards the restoration work.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Mills Archive ) (original source Milling, 3 March 1956)〕 The work included the replacement of two sails that had been blown off in a storm on 13 March 1951.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Mills Archive ) (original source Milling, 24 March 1951)〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Mills Archive ) (original source Kent Messenger, 6 July 1956)〕 The mill featured in the 1955 film "Raising a Riot" starring Kenneth More.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Barham Village website )〕 The mill was purchased by Kent County Council in the late 1960s and burnt down on 3 March 1970 when a spark from a bonfire set light to the mill. A new stage had been prepared for the restored mill, and this was donated to Draper's Windmill, Margate and erected there by Vincent Pargeter.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Mills Archive )〕
