King's Mill, Shipley
King's Mill or Vincent's Mill, Shipley, West Sussex, England is a smock mill built in 1879 which has been restored and was open to the public until its closure on 19 July 2009.
==History==
''King's Mill'' was built in 1879 at a cost of £2,500 by Messrs Grist and Steele, the Horsham millwrights. Machinery from a windmill at Coldwaltham is believed to have been incorporated in the mill. The mill worked commercially until 1926, latterly by a steam engine. It was bought in 1906 by Hilaire Belloc, who owned it until his death in 1953. ''King's Mill'' was restored by E Hole and Sons, the Burgess Hill millwrights, as a memorial to Belloc soon after his death and was re-opened to visitors for the first time in 1958.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =History of Shipley Windmill )〕 West Sussex County Council had the responsibility for the upkeep of the mill, which remained in the ownership of the Belloc family.〔
The Shipley Windmill Charitable Trust was formed in 1987 and took over responsibility for the maintenance. Further restoration work was carried out by Hole's between 1987 and 1990, when the mill re-opened, although with only two sweeps at that time. The second pair of sweeps was fitted in 1991.〔 A new pair of sweeps and a new stock were fitted in November 2004.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =Shipley windmill, Sussex )〕 On 7 April 2009, it was announced that the mill was to close to the public as the lease owned by Shipley Mill Charitable Trust only had three years to run and they had been notified that the lease would not be renewed when it expired. The mill, in full working order, opened for the 2009 season on 5 April and held its last open day on 19 July.
