Weybourne Windmill is located on the eastern high ground above the village of Weybourne in the English county of Norfolk. It is on the northern side of the A149 coastal road that links King’s Lynn to Great Yarmouth. The Windmill is 3 miles west of Sheringham and is within the Norfolk Coast AONB. The mill is a grade II listed building.
The Windmill was built in 1850 and consists of five storeys built from red brick. When it was in operation the sails, which are now fixed in an easterly direction, powered three pairs of overdriven millstones. The millstones were located on the second floor. The mill had four double shuttered sails. The cap is boat shaped and has an eight-bladed fan. It once also had a stage around its girth at the second floor which has long been removed.
