Fulwell Windmill
Fulwell Windmill
Tower windmill that is restored and workable. Built 1821 to replace an earlier mill and listed Grade II*. It has four patent sails that have been converted to common sails. Winding is by fantail.
This shows the 'spider' mechanism for operating the patent sails. This is no longer in use.
