Geocache Description:


The Earliest form of windmill was the Post Mill.The entire body of the mill pivots around a massive central post. It was moved round by the fantail which was moved by the wind and ensured that the sails always faced into the wind.
This mill was built in about 1770 and following restoration work in the 1970`s is now in full working order.
The mill is open to the public on the last Sunday of each month from April to September.

The cache is hidden on a public footpath which can be followed from the village hall car park which we recommed you park at [N51-48.692 E000-18.452]

PLEASE NOTE THE MILL IS PRIVATELY OWNED SO PLEASE KEEP TO THE FOOTPATH WHICH CAN BE MUDDY.
