More about this scene
Great Mill is a yellow brick tower windmill standing on a ridge, with panoramic views of the flat fenland. The tower is four storeys high, and its diameter is larger than normal, particularly at the top. The mill has four patent sails and is winded by a fantail. It was built in 1803 and ceased work in 1943. It has now been restored, and is complete with all its original machinery. It is privately owned, but is sometimes open to visitors.
