The great black windmill stands alone, quietly hidden away from the claws of demolishers and developers of London. In 2016, this grand old Brixton Windmill celebrated it's 200th birthday, and is still going strong.
The stone ground wholemeal flour, made from local organically sourced wheat, can be bought in various local shops in Brixton. After the war, there were proposals to demolish the mill and build flats. The proposal was rejected and the mill was restored in 1964.
This Windmill is a reminder to all Londoners of the close links that the capital had with agriculture and food production.
