Beacon Mill, also known as Rottingdean Windmill, is a beautifully restored windmill perched atop a hill in the picturesque British countryside of Rottingdean, England. Part of the Beacon Hill Local Nature Reserve, this historic windmill stands as a testament to England’s rural past. The area is home to a variety of wildflowers, such as Knapweeds, which serve as a source of nectar for many butterflies in July, further enhancing the scenic charm of the location. Surrounded by rolling hills and lush green fields, the Rottingdean Windmill offers photographers an opportunity to experiment with various compositions, lighting conditions, and focal lengths. With its striking silhouette against the sky, rich heritage, and the vibrant flora and fauna, the Rottingdean Windmill is a delightful destination for capturing the essence of rural England and its natural beauty.
