The
January 2005 newsletter from the Friends of Upminster windmill
reports that progress on the mill lease is still ongoing, as is preparation for the Lottery grant application.
The mill itself was present, in representational form on the Havering float in London's New Year's day parade, and is soon to be
seen on TV, on the opening sequence of
Cash in the Attic,
an antiques programme, to be shown on the BBC in March.
