A tower mill of 1816 in a small park off Brixton Hill, the last working windmill in inner London, opened for tours one weekend a month in summer.
John Ashby, a miller, built it in 1816 on open fields, and the Ashby family milled here until 1862, when the houses that had grown up around it took the wind; they carried on by steam and later by gas until 1934, and the machinery from those years is still inside. After forty years of neglect Lambeth restored it in 2011, and the Friends of Windmill Gardens now open it, grind flour in it and sell the bags. Protected at the higher historic grade, it is a black tarred tower with a white cap and four sails, small against the flats, and the tour climbs it floor by floor.
Tours on the second weekend of the month, March to October, booked online
