Prior to moving to our current site, the church met at a windmill in Bill Street Road.
Here was a smock mill, so called because this type was considered to resemble the old-time labourers' smock. In this case the main body of the mill was a fixture- a sloping tower- with only the cap swivelling to bring the sails into the wind. It was owned for many years by a Mr Kimmins, and drove four pairs of stones. This mill was demolished in about 1930, having stood derelict for a long period. The Mill House, although having undergone some alterations, yet remains to represent a different age.
