South Marsh Mill is a five-storey tower mill. She had four Patent sails carried on a cast iron windshaft. The cap was a beehive shape, winded by a fantail. The mill drove three pairs of millstones. The cap now carried is a hexagonal shape. The fantail is missing. [2] Various extensions have been made to the tower. [1]
