About the work
Post mills, such as this one at Laxfield, were once a common sight in East Anglia. Few survive today; most became dilapidated and were pulled down following the war. Martin Hardie underlines the economic importance they once held in communities by showing this mill (one of two that once stood in the village) towering above the houses, dominating its surroundings.
