Steam engines for Mills Weekend
Windmill Hill windmill was visited by 500 visitors, and a selection of
steam traction engines and tractors on the Sunday of National Mills weekend.
The mill is about to be completely dismantled and rebuilt at a cost of
more than £1M. As the largest surviving post mill in England,
it was used as a landmark by ships on the Channel and by WWII British bomber
pilots returning from France.
