FOR #03 - Heckington 8 Sail Windmill

Been out doing admin this morning, haircut, car-wash (that didn’t happen) and monthly meat shop at our favourite butchers at East Heckington. Just had to call in at Heckington on my way home to visit their 8 Sailed Windmill.

From their website: “Set in the heart of the Lincolnshire countryside, this Grade I listed windmill was built in 1830 with five sails. Damaged in a storm in 1890, the mill was repaired using eight sails, the cap and machinery from a local windmill in Boston.
Now fully restored, the site hosts an award-winning Visitor Centre, Tea Room and Brewery, plus gardens, onsite bakehouse and museum.”

Thanks for dropping by.
What a wonderful image. So good to read about the windmill.
