Saxtead Green windmill is a post mill located in Suffolk, England, dating from 1796. The structure exemplifies the characteristic design of late eighteenth-century English post mills, featuring a wooden body mounted on a brick base that allows the entire mill to rotate to face the wind. The mill retains much of its original machinery and represents a well-preserved example of the industrial heritage of rural Suffolk. It remains one of the most complete surviving mills of its type and has been preserved as a museum monument by the Heritage Collections Trust.
