Brent Pelham Windmill is a Grade II listed[1] smock mill at Brent Pelham, Hertfordshire, England which is derelict.[2][3]

History

Brent Pelham Mill was built in 1826 by William Halden,[1] who was at Meesden windmill in 1827. It was working until at least 1890 and was disused by 1898. At some point the mill was stripped of machinery and a water tank was built on the smock tower. The mill survives in this form today, clad in corrugated iron.[4]
