The Clayton Windmills, known locally as Jack and Jill, stand on the South Downs above the village of Clayton, Sussex and both are Grade II listed buildings. Jack is a five storey tower mill built in 1866 and worked until c.1907. Unusually, the Jack mill has a male name (almost every other mill in the UK is considered female). Jack is privately owned and there is no public access so this is the closest I could get.
