Jill Windmill
Our Society has fully restored and now maintains Jill Windmill, a 19th century corn windmill located at Clayton, West Sussex in the United Kingdom.

A traditional working corn windmill in the South Downs National Park.

The earliest reference to a windmill on the present site is from September 1765 when an indenture was made between Viscount Montague and Edward Oram of Clayton. It read: -

'Lease all that part of ground near to Duncton Gate on which a windmill has been lately erected by the son of the said Viscount and contained in the whole by five rods every way for a term of 99 years.'
