The smock mill gets its name from its resemblance to a traditional smock, which is a type of loose-fitting garment worn by agricultural workers in the past. The mill's design features a tall, wooden structure with a thatched or tiled roof, resembling the shape of a smock. This style of windmill was particularly common in England, where it was used for various purposes, including grinding grain. The term reflects both its appearance and its connection to rural life.
The surname Smock is an English name from Middle English 'smock', 'shift'. It is an occupational name for someone who made or sold such garments, or a nickname for someone who habitually wore a smock.
