The Nijlânnermole near Workum was probably built in 1784. The octagonal top porter is of the ground sailer type and its function is a polder mill. The polder that he drains is 440 hectares and is partly bordered by the old dike that runs along Workum and Hindeloopen.
The first mill on this location was built in 1624, the same year that the polder was diked in. He then worked with a water wheel. In 1770 there was a mill with a mortar, but in practice it was too small. In 1784 it was replaced by the current mill, which had a larger auger. The pine spindle dates from 1624, the rest of the wood has been replaced.
Until 1950, the mill was driven by wind power, after which a diesel engine was installed.

To sevens together
Like time indefinite
Try to catch the glass
Before it falls
Without a frown
Can you turn up the stereo?
I want to play you this old song
It's about love
Can I do that?
Did we remember to water the plants today?
I forgot to look up at the moon because
I was too busy
I was too busy looking at you, baby

WESTZAAN - Mill “Het Prinsenhof" (1722) a National Monument, which was used until 1899 for peeling of barley to groat; the only Peel mill in Netherlands that has a peel work!
It is known that there was a mill as early as 1556. In the following centuries this mill has been regularly renewed. The last time that took place was in 1899. The existing mill (a ground sailor) was demolished and a scaffolding mill came in return. The lower stone part was built on site and the actual mill was from the Zaan region. There the mill was used as an oil mill. In Bunschoten the mill was converted into a flour mill.
The Spaulding Grist Mill
South Street, Townsend Harbor, MA
The grinding stones of this mill were driven by a horizontal wheel powered by water from the Squannacook River. The mill processed corn and grain grown by local farmers until it closed in the 1920s. It is currently closed to the public while under repair.
ZAANDAM / HAALDERSBROEK - Zaanse Schans is a small village on the banks of the Zaan river, complete with tidy green houses, real working windmills, and small topical museums such as the Clock Museum and the first Albert Heijn store.
In the 17th and 18th century there were thousands of windmills along the dykes; sawmills, dye mills, oil mills etc that powered the Dutch economy. The Zaanse Schans village gives you a picture of what it must have been like. Not all the windmills and buildings started out in Zaanse Schans, many of them were moved here from the region as they came under threat from urban development across North Holland.
The windmills are all working mills, and the perform various functions, including a saw mill, a paint mill (grinding pigments), and oil mill (grinding linseed or peanuts to draw off the oil).
