*************
Beacon Mill or New Mill is a grade II listed[1] smock mill at Rottingdean, Sussex, England which has been restored as a seamark.
Beacon Mill, was built in 1802. There are records of an earlier mill on the site, thought to have been a post mill.[2] During the digging of the foundations, a human skeleton was found.[3] The mill was working until 1881[2] and by 1890 was in such bad condition that demolition was considered. In 1905, the Marquis of Abergavenny had the mill repaired, but she was derelict again by the early 1920s. It was 1935 before she was restored again, the millwrighting being done by Neve's of Heathfield and new sails were made by Holman's, the Canterbury millwrights. In 1969, the mill was leaning to the north east, and Hole's, the Burgess Hill millwrights erected a steel frame inside the smock to support the mill, and fitted new sails.[3] The steel framing was extended into the cap in 1974[2]
