Remains of windmill, Harrock Hill
Remains of windmill, Harrock Hill
Taken from the same viewpoint as SD5113 : Ruined windmill on Harrock Hill but before the ferns have grown up so providing a slightly different foreground. The mill is reported as having been destroyed by fire in the 1880s. Sitting on top of the first significant hill inland from the Irish Sea it must have been a very effective windmill!
