Hibaldstow Mill, Ings Lane, Hibaldstow, North Lincolnshire

These are the largely intact remains of a combined wind and watermill, with living accommodation and its associated outbuildings. The mill was built by a local millwright, James Middleton, in 1802. It was extended in 1837 by the inclusion of an additional floor to the tower. The mill was used as a home for a miller and family until the 1880s. The undershot water wheel was removed in 1912, the 4 sails in 1913, and the ogee cap in 1924. The mill pond was filled in, in the 1940s. The mill, with its accompanying range of contemporary outbuildings is one of very few examples of combined wind and water mills in Britain. The highly accomplished design is particularly notable and probably unique.
