Southeast smock, photos here here.

There is a a stone stylobate instead of a wooden skirt in the lower part. At first, we assumed that the bottom of the mill has been altered for use with diesel engines. However, eight main pillars of the frame stand on top of the stylobate, and not on the ground. The operation of lifting the entire mill to a concrete base is meaningless. Apparently the mill was originally built on concrete. An iron vertical shaft (by the way, the only one made of iron we've found) also speaks in favor of a small age. If it is younger than 1943, than the mill in Isakovo, then it is the youngest historical mill.
