Out one of the mill windows - another mill!! |
From the platform - I couldn't get much closer to the blades than this |
I think this might be some sort of brake mechanism? |

Brilliant .. I didn't get that close let alone into one so well done .. I am not sure but the brake you mentioned 'might' be a mechanism to allow the blades to be moved to face the wind :)
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to be so polite PG. How about 'stupid woman, she doesn't know her brakes from her tiller' (for want of a better word!). Thank you :-))
ReplyDeleteWell it might have been polite .. but it was only a suggestion and you might be right .. so hence my reason to be unsure and not bolshy :)<
ReplyDeleteCharming humility, both of you. Bolshy? Windmill closeup sounds enchanting, manners or no :-)
ReplyDeletehehe - NZ trait, not to boast!!!
