Below is a view of Upper Deal taken from the Mill, a view seen well into the 20th century, but the number of sailing ships point to before 1830. The engraving is in Stebbing's book and he attributes it to 'The Watering Places of Britain' by Joseph Robins, 1828. Ref: Dover Museum D31171

There are 5 mills visible if you look

Prospect Place named very early on, opposite the Naval Yard. Many of these buildings still exist. Also in Stebbing's book. Ref: Dover Museum D20882
