English Windmills
This website is about mills, mostly wind-powered mills!
Our primary focus will initially be on English windmills, but, our website will expand over time to include pictures of and information on many other mills around the world. As we are based in the wonderful county of Somerset in south-west England, we also include up-to-date details of local windmills open to the public, such as the tower mills in Chapel Allerton and High Ham. We will add newly scanned images from our picture archive to the site monthly or more often if time allows. In the near future our site should include almost everything you may wish to know about windmills. Come back soon for another look.
Wind and Water Mills
Wind and water powered mills throughout Europe, from England to Poland.
