Many
thanks to El Aguila & SideIron for this cache, in such a
wonderful place.
The windmill is
situated near La Marquesa Golf Club, and overlooks
Rojales.
My thanks to
'Nomadarasta'' for providing me the following additional
information.
The windmill was constructed In
the 18th C and is one of the more interesting structures of the
pre-industrial architecture of Rojales. It was placed on one of the
high knolls of the Parque Ladrillar to make better use of the
prevailing winds. The mill was restored in 1998 and has two rooms
containing the original machinery which was reconstructed in the
traditional manner.
It is built in the
style of the windmills found in Castilla La Mancha and used for
grinding corn.
There are good
views over Rojales and, on a clear day, you can see the mountains
beyond Crevillent.
Remember - leave nothing but footprints - take nothing
but memories and photo's.
