Tutelina Mill, also known as Clarke's Mill, is a Grade II listed [1] tower mill at Great Welnetham, Suffolk, England which has been conserved.
Tutelina Mill was built in 1865 and shares its name with a Roman harvest goddess (now usually known as Tutilina). A steam mill was erected nearby. The windmill worked by wind until 1910. [2] The sails were removed in 1916, [3] and the mill was worked by a Crossley [1] engine until the mid-1960s. [2]
Tutelina Mill is a small four storey tower mill. The tower is 28 feet 6 inches (8.69 m) to the curb. [4] It had a domed cap, winded by a fantail. The four Patent sails drove two pairs of millstones. [2] The wallower is cast iron with wooden teeth, carried on a cast iron upright shaft. The great spur wheel is also cast iron with wooden teeth. [1]
