Tulleys Tulip Fields: - a shed like building, with motorized sails

A typical fake Dutch windmill, partly modelled after a Dutch post mill, but ending up looking very unlike the real thing. There's a pyramid base, supporting a quite short body that carries the sails. The body is unable to turn. The sails are turned by a motor, in 2026 rotating backwards, and the flat sails are affixed to the back (downwind side) of the stocks, not the front as they should be. Built for the opening of the attraction in Spring 2025.
