Creeting St Mary Windmill is a Grade II listed[1] dovecote at Creeting St Mary, Suffolk, England which has been restored. It was originally the body of a post mill which stood elsewhere in the village.

History

Creeting St Mary windmill was built in 1796[2] at {{gbmapping|TM 095 558}}.[3] The mill was dismantled c1860, and the body was moved to the grounds of the medieval hall known as Houghton Park Farm, now [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1624038 The Old Hall]. The Mill was part of the complex of outbuildings, which later became Alder Carr Farm.[2] The mill had Patent sails, which were transferred to a tower mill at Kersey when the mill was dismantled.[4] It served for many years as a dovecote. It is the only such example of a reused windmill buck remaining in the country.[1] The building was derelict by the late 1970s[3] but was restored in 1995, and moved to a new position on the farm, converted to a craft workshop. The buck retains all its original framing.[2]
