Alford Windmill, Lincolnshire

Alford Windmill, Lincolnshire Image

Alford’s last surviving windmill is a fine working example of a traditional 5 sailed Lincolnshire Windmill with its distinctive Ogee Cap and balcony. It is known as Hoyles Windmill and is currently (2016) in full working order. It was built in 1821 for a Mr Oxley, who was later killed while working on another windmill at Barrow on Humber. The mill’s preservation was famously put at risk early in the last century when a fire started in the night, on the ground floor, and the miller was luckily woken by a baby’s crying, saw the fire and extinguished it before it could take hold. The charred timbers can still be seen in the mill today. The mill has 6 floors and four sets of millstones.
