FRIENDS OF WINDMILL GARDENS, SW2
The Brixton Windmill was built in 1816 when Brixton Hill was nothing but
open fields.
It was still a working mill in the early twentieth century but
it eventually fell into disuse.
It is situated in a small park, Windmill
Gardens, at the west end of Blenheim Gardens, SW2. (See area map)
A local residents' group, the Friends of Windmill Gardens, was established
in 2003.
Our aim is to restore the Windmill and to transform the surrounding
park into an area that will be valued by all the local community.
We have the support of Lambeth Council but we have a lot of money to raise.
Keep in touch with this site to find out what events are taking place and what
progress we are making.
