White Mill is a smock mill west of Sandwich, Kent, England that was built in 1760. The mill has been restored and is open to the public as part of the White Mill Rural Heritage Centre. The museum also includes the miller's cottage, which has been furnished to appear as it did between 1900 and 1939. Other displays in the outbuildings include farming and craft tools, wheelwright and blacksmith workshops. ==History==
White Mill was built in 1760. It was marked on Andrews, Drury and Herbert's map of 1769 and the 1819–43 Ordnance Survey map. The mill was worked by the Stanley family for many years. The mill was last powered by wind in 1926. From then until 1957〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=White Mill Rural Heritage Centre )〕 it was being powered by a oil engine. The mill was repaired in the 1960s by Vincent Pargeter before he became a professional millwright. A pair of sails from the demolished Tower mill at Wingham was erected on the mill. The work was initially financed by Pargeter himself but in 1964, the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings gave a grant for the purchase of materials to repair the mill. The mill was acquired by Sandwich Borough Council in 1968, and later passed into the ownership of Kent County Council.〔
