This is the windmill that was used in the past to water the ranch animals. Texture was added to this picture.
The windmill was built in 1846 and worked until the 1920s when the sails were removed and the tower abandoned.
It was bought by the current owner in a very dilapidated state. Initially the two adjoining cottages were renovated. Then, because the mill was dangerous, with timber falling from the top, it was decided to put a new cap on and restoration began. The cap went up in 1979, followed by the sails in 1981.
The interior of the mill was also restored, with three floors being completely replaced and all the machinery and stones gathered from farm sales and other derelict mills.
The mill is now fully restored and in working order. Visitors can climb to the very top and go out on the fan deck.
Recently restored. Told it is the only working wind powered flour mill in England.
Top tip:- It is very dusty in a flour mill, not a good place to take a digital camera! Still trying to get the flour out of my bag.

Big brother windmill looking over the shoulder of an old standby. This was found in the middle of a huge wind farm located along Rt. 63 just south of Kentland Indiana.
The village of Brill is known for its famous windmill. With timbers dating back to 1685, it provides one of the earliest and best preserved examples of a post mill (the earliest type of European windmill) in the UK. Following restorations in 1967 and again in 2009, the mill is static and cannot now turn on it's post.
