More about this scene
Besides a devastating fire, the original village of Cockerham also experienced flooding from the River Cocker, another reason to move to higher ground. On the site of the gardens of the Old Rectory was the windmill, which burned down in 1802 and yet again within 30 years. Called New Mill in 1840, it featured as a landmark on Captain Henry Mangles Denham's 'Instructions for approaching the new town and port of Fleetwood'.
