Mill Green Mill (or Fryerning Mill) is a grade II * listed〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher =English Heritage )〕 post mill at Mill Green, Fryerning, Essex, which has been restored. ==History== Mill Green Mill was built in 1759, replacing an earlier mill which stood some to the east during the period 1564–1731. The mill was built by Robert Barker, a millwright from Chelmsford.〔 A roundhouse was included from the start. The mill was owned by the Petre estate and records of expenditure on the mill are in the Essex Record Office. In July or August 1774, a farmer was killed by being struck by the sails of the mill. New sails were fitted in 1802 and 1806, and a new stock in 1821. An accident at the mill resulted in the miller sustaining a fractured thigh in 1852, and the owner of the mill being reported to have been carried round on the sails for ten or twelve revolutions before he was rescued. The roof of the mill was repaired in 1878 and the mill re-tarred. A new sail was fitted in 1884 and a new pair of sails in 1902. The mill was working until at least 1905.〔 Some repairs were done to the body of the mill in the 1930s. The mill was restored in 1959 by R.F. Collinson, who had bought the mill house and discovered the mill in the garden. This entailed the complete replacement of the frame of the mill, including the crowntree. On 2 January 1976, the sails ran away in a gale and the brake wheel disintegrated.〔 A new brake wheel was constructed in 1989.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fryerning Mill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
