EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the picturesque Blackboys Mill in all its glory. Taken in August 1932, this image showcases the post mill in full working condition, a testament to its historical significance. Situated in Framfield, Wealden, East Sussex, Blackboys Mill was known as Floyed Windmill on old maps. Originally constructed in 1807 on Glynde Hill, this Georgian corn mill was later relocated to Blackboys between 1867 and 1868. Its relocation ensured that it continued to serve its purpose for many more years. However, sadly, the post mill met its demise when it was demolished in 1945. The composition of this photograph beautifully highlights the intricate design and craftsmanship of the windmill's structure. The blades gracefully rotate against a backdrop of lush greenery and clear blue skies – a scene that transports us back to a simpler time. Francis Matthew Shea skillfully captured not only the physical beauty of Blackboys Mill but also preserved an important piece of history through his lens. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our rich heritage and pays homage to those who worked tirelessly within these historic mills. As we admire this stunning image today, let us appreciate both the artistry behind Francis Matthew Shea's work and the enduring legacy left by structures like Blackboys Mill.
