Skidby Windmill is a Grade II listed working windmill at Skidby near Beverley, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.

Originally built in 1821, the mill was further extended to its current 5 stories in 1870. It is a popular tourist attraction, and the windmill also houses a small museum, the Museum of East Riding Rural Life. The mill is powered by 4 sails, 11 metres in length and weighing 1.25 tonnes. It is the last working English windmill north of the Humber, producing stoneground wholemeal flour from locally grown wheat.
