Pitstone Windmill, a ‘post’ mill is thought to have been built c1627. The entire body of the mill and the sails could be turned by the ‘post’ to face the direction of the wind. Seriously damaged in a gale in 1902 it was deemed beyond repair but remains a striking sight when set against these open crop fields and the nearby Chiltern Hills.
