A windmill is a mill that converts the energy of wind into rotational energy by means of vanes called sails or blades.
Just a windmill in the middle of a housing estate. Everything is fine. Nothing to see here.
Decided to do a little light-painting this evening in Whitburn. Never been there before. It was quite a strange place, but they seemed to think I was strange, on my knees, in mud, at night, shining a torch at their windmill and grinning....
Love it! Going back am I!

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about it:- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lytham_Windmill
From Rye Windmill website:-
"The distinctive and famous Rye Mill is a grade-two listed building and has been the inspiration for artists and photographers throughout the centuries. It occupies an historic site in Gibbet’s Marsh where a windmill has stood, in one form or another, since at least the sixteenth century. The Symondons map of Rye created in 1596 shows an illustration of a windmill in the exact spot where today’s mill now stands. Copies can be seen in Rye Town Hall"
It is now a guesthouse offering bed & breakfast.

I'm pleased to have another good looking windmill near me. This one has been restored to its former glory and looks perfect. I'm sure you will be seeing more shots of it in the future.
A rare and striking example of an early form of windmill
This is one of the oldest windmills in Britain. Pitstone windmill ground flour for the village for almost three hundred years until a freak storm in the early 1900s left it damaged beyond economic repair.
Today you can explore both the inner and outer workings of the windmill; including the massive post upon which the mill turns and the tail pole which the miller used to position the sails in the wind, while also taking in spectacular views of the surrounding Chilterns countryside.
