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 an auxiliary line shaft below the ceiling at this level. I believe the device in the background is a set of pearl barley stones lacking the containment.
