Berney Arms takes its name from the landowner Thomas Trench Berney , via the name given to the railway station .

The pub serves Woodforde 's Real Ale , brewed in nearby Woodbastwick . Besides the pub , the main focus is Berney Arms combined Mill and Windpump . This is the tallest windmill in Norfolk , a Scheduled Ancient Monument and in the care of English Heritage . The mill is 21m tall , and the span of the sails is about the same size . It has seven floors . It was built around 1870 by the millwright firm of Stolworthy . At first , it was used to grind cement clinker . Later it was also used as a windpump to drain the marshland . The large scoop wheel is evidence of that use . The windpump was in use until 1951 , and is now operated as a tourist attraction . Berney Marshes is a nature reserve in the care of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds ( RSPB ) , and part of the Halvergate Marshes .
