Note on reverse reads: "Usually windmills in Suffolk remaining today have survived through their being adapted for purposes other than milling. This post mill at Aldeburgh is the town's "water-works" and pumps by sail."
Cutting from an "Essex Chronicle" about an appeal to the Essex Archaeological Society to take over Bocking Windmill, mentioning similar schemes in Ditchling, Norfolk and Nottinghamshire. It includes a mil at Aldeburgh which was moved in order to pump the town's water supply.
