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!

El molino de viento de Ojos Negros, Comarca del Jiloca (Teruel) es un molino de torre mediterránea y cubierta de forma cónica bastante peraltada.
Tiene dos plantas: la camareta y el moledero. La primera se utilizaba de almacén y la segunda alberga la maquinaria: la rueda dentada, la rueda catalina, el eje, la volandera. En la parte superior tiene pequeñas ventanas para averiguar la dirección del viento.
No existe una cronología exacta pero, por su tipología, podría datar del s.XVI o XVII.
Sus aspas fueron destrozadas por un fuerte vendaval.

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.
Campo de Criptana
La Mancha
Spain
Campo de Criptana is home to the famous windmills that supposedly inspired Miguel de Cervantes, the author of Don Quichote.
I think we all know about the adventures of the Spanish nobleman and his servant Sancho Panza and if not you can read about it here Written in 1605 it is one of the earliest novels of modern western literature.
The story of Don Quichotes battle against the windmills you can see here :-))
Pitstone Windmill is a Grade II* listed windmill in England which is thought to date from the early 17th century. It stands in the north-east corner of a large field near the parish boundary of Ivinghoe and Pitstone in Buckinghamshire, and belongs today to the National Trust.
Located in the countryside between Great Haseley and Great Milton in south Oxfordshire. Believed to be built in 1760, the mill reached the end of its working life 100 years ago on the eve of the first world war, having ground corn for 150 years. It has now been restored by Sir Martin Wood for whom the windmill holds fond childhood memories.
