Ringle Crouch Green Mill
Ringle Crouch Green Mill is a smock mill in Sandhurst, Kent, England that was demolished to base level in 1945, and now has a new smock tower built on it as residential accommodation and an electricity generator.
==History==
Ringle Crouch Green Mill was built in 1844 by William Warren, the Hawkhurst millwright to replace a post mill which had stood at Boxhurst Farm that was blown down in 1842. It was the only corn mill built in Kent with five sails.〔〔There was another five-sail mill at Margate, but that was a pumping mill〕 The mill was built for James Collins, who ran the mill until his death. His son Edward then took the mill and ran it until his death in 1911. The mill was run for a short time by Edward Collins' sons Edward and Harry, then by C J Bannister, who also had a mill at Northiam, for about a year until the mill ceased working in 1912.
A sail blew off, and the mill quickly became derelict. The fantail and shutters were taken down, and in 1926 the stage was taken down. An iron windpump was erected alongside the mill, and three water tanks were installed in the mill to supply nearby cottages and cowsheds.〔 The smock was demolished in 1945〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = English Heritage )〕 The base was left standing and used as a Scout hut for a time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Heritage Windpower )〕
In 1997, planning permission was applied for, and granted, to build a replica mill on the existing mill base, with the tower being used as living accommodation and a wind turbine for generating electricity. The new building was to replicate the former windmill, with five sails like the original mill had.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Heritage Windpower )〕
