DRUM MILL

5.0
Rated 5 out of 5

This three-stage windmill was built in c.1750. Although now roofless, the mill is in relatively good condition.

It is an important relic of the tradition of using wind to generate energy for the grinding of corn into flour and would thus have had significant social value to the area.
