TA0208 : Wrawby Postmill

Brigg, North Lincolnshire, Great Britain

Wrawby Postmill
Wrawby Postmill
Currently looking a little forlorn with only two of its four sails in place. The postmill was built in 1760 and restored in 1964 after falling into disuse in the 1940s. It originally had "common" or "cloth-in-hand" sails and is said to be the last surviving postmill in the north of England.
