Over the past few years, the National Trust have produced a series of pin badges for their properties.
These badges are available for a (suggested) donation, and are generally exclusive to the property they represent.
There's a number of mill properties that have such badges, and they generally look pretty attractive.
(The one badge that I would say is an exception to this is that from Bembridge windmill,
where the badge is a very poor representation of the actual mill, with very thin sails and other inaccuracies).

There are additional mill badges that I have not tracked down examples of:
- Flatford Mill - not sure if there is a badge of the mill, or just Willy Lott's Cottage
- An alternative Houghton badge showing just the mill itself
- Orford Ness, where the badge doesn't show a mill,
but in some years the backing card shows the mock windmill tower which housed experimental radar equipment
The badge for Winchester City mill shows an otter, rather than any specific mill related artifact or building.
Some of these can be seen on various collectors pages:
