The Round House
The Round House, Pipe Passage, Lewes, East Sussex, BN7 1YQ
This is the base of a windmill built by public subscription. After the working parts of the mill were moved to another site, it was converted into a private house, extended in the 1870s and 1920s. Bloomsbury Group writers Virginia and Leonard Woolf bought the house just over 100 years ago and shortly after sold it to John Every, owner of the Phoenix Ironworks in Lewes. Ground floor open with display of historical material.
