===Wray Common Windmill=== [[File:Wray Common mill.jpg|thumb|right|upright|Wray Common Windmill]] Wray Common Windmill was built in 1824 and is to the northeast of the town centre. It is a [[tower mill]] constructed of tarred bricks with a metal cap.<ref>{{NHLE|num=1029127|desc=Wray Common Windmill|grade=II*|fewer-links=yes}}</ref> The mill was used to grind corn until 1895, when it became an agricultural store. It was converted into a four-storey private residence in the 1960s. The building underwent a programme of restoration between 2004 and 2007, which included the installation of new, non-functioning [[windmill sail|sails]].<ref>{{cite news |url= https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/sails-wray-common-windmill-reigate-15376194 |title= This is why the sails on Wray Common Windmill in Reigate have disappeared |first= Jenny |last= Seymour |date= 8 November 2018 |work= Surrey Live |access-date= 12 October 2021 |archive-date= 16 November 2018 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20181116042244/https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/sails-wray-common-windmill-reigate-15376194 |url-status= live }}</ref>
