Description: The Roundhouse, Mill Lane, Barrow, South Yorkshire. This is one of two former windmills on the Wentworth Estate. This windmill on Mill Lane appears to have been called The Old Mill Barrow on the 1891 census registration district documents. It was marked as Wentworth Mill (corn) on the 1892-1893 1:2500 OS map and the 1905-1907 1:2500 OS map. The mill is described as being Wentworth Mill (disused) on the 1930-1931 OS print. The Sheffield A-Z by the Geographers A-Z Map Company (Edition 1 1991) shows the mill on Mill Lane as being called Wentworth Mill. More recently it is called the Roundhouse on the OS-Phillip's Street Atlas 1997, and modern maps. The nearby windmill on Clayfield Lane, also on the Wentworth Estate is also known as the Roundhouse or Round House, and appears to have been called Wentworth Mill on the 1891 census registration district documents, but probably was given the name The Saxon Tower.
