Description

This is a windmill towermill built in the early 19th century. It is constructed of reddish-brown brick and currently has no roof. The structure is circular in shape and tapers towards the top. There are entrances on two sides, each featuring segmental arches, and additional segmentally-arched openings above these entrances. On the other two sides, there are four segmentally-arched openings. The remains of a projecting course can be seen at the summit.
