Description
The remains of a circular windmill tower near Bryn Felin date back to an unspecified period. The structure is built of rubble stone, with walls that taper slightly as they rise. Currently, the windmill is roofless and the walls are partially collapsed. There is a tall and wide doorway on the north side, featuring a stone lintel above it. On the south side, there is a large window at the upper level that is mostly blocked, and a small window with a stone lintel at the northeast lower level. The walls now stand at approximately 5 meters high and include a beam slot for an upper floor, which is more substantially intact on the south side.
