Description

Oldland Post Mill was built during the 18th century. In 1934 the 'Shilling Fund' was launched with the aim of restoring the mill which had ceased operating in 1912. By 1935 there were enough funds to undertake some repairs, but the restoration was still incomplete when this photograph was taken in 1936.
