Situated on what is now Lord Street.
The houses don’t exist on the 1895 map, and by 1915 its just named Lord Street, so this must have been a fairly shortlived name.

Coatham windmill had four sails, and a photo of this does exist.
This location is behind Station Road and parts of a substantial sandstone wall are still present, although again it may be nothing to do with the windmill.

Redcars windmill is shown in numerous etchings as having six sail, although they were gone by the time this photo was taken.
The area seen is between Fishermans Square and the Bus Station. A workshop with some large sandstone blocks remains athough whether this was part of the windmill or just an associated building I don’t know.
