词条 | Subscription Mill, North Leverton |
释义 |
The mill is located in North Leverton, Nottinghamshire. The mill has three floors and is built to the Lincolnshire style. It has four patent shuttered sails mounted on a cross, an Ogee cap and an eight bladed fantail. There are three sets of millstones, two of which are wind-driven, and one set driven from an external engine/tractor. In 1884, the mill was extended and gained an extra floor. The windmill has continued to work through all of its life, making it unique.[1] The windmill is entirely maintained by a group of volunteers, and is open to the public every Saturday and Sunday throughout the year. Admission is free but there is a donation box towards the upkeep of the mill.[1] There are open weekends in the summer with a wide variety of attractions for visitors to see.
