Norfolk Broads - Hunsett Mill

Album Info:

This drainage mill was built around 1860 and is a red-brick tower mill. The mill has a white boat shaped cap, sails and a fantail. The windpump once ran two scoop wheels. The tower had four patent sails. It was restored around 1970, along with the mill house, both of which are privately owned. It is probable that the pumping gear is still intact. Major damage was caused to the sails of the windmill in the Great storm of 1987, which resulted in one of the sails being completely replaced with wood specially shipped from Canada. On the 5th of May 2007 another storm caused the fan to be torn off the fanstage.

  • A bit surreal. Also there is a feeling that the picture is from the past. Anyway, it's attractive. Thanks, Vadim
