Melin Adda is a windmill near Amlwch, Ynys Môn, (OS reference: SH 440921)[1][2] which was built in the 1790s and closed down in 1912. The mill was turned into a house in the 1970s. Nearby stood another mill, which was water driven, a much older mill, dating back to 1352.

In 1851 it is recorded that Owen Hughes the miller at the time was killed after being struck by the sails boom.
