[edit]

Unless otherwise stated, the source for all entries is the five volume Essex Windmills, Millers and Millwrights.[8][9][10][11][12]

  • Sach's Mill, Cressing – listed under Rivenhall
  • Billericay – listed under Great Burstead
  • Oxley Green Mill, Tolleshunt d'Arcy – listed under Tolleshunt
  • Virley Mill – listed under Tolleshunt
  • Messing Maypole Mill, Tiptree under Tolleshunt Knights
