Description
St-y-Nyll windmill tower and the remains of an attached barn are notable structures. The windmill tower is tall, measuring 13 meters, and has a tapering, circular shape that is partly covered in ivy. It is constructed from coursed limestone blocks, with some areas rendered on the north side. The tower has four or five storeys, but the floors, cap, sails, and other machinery have all been removed. It features plain window and door openings with deep reveals, and some ironwork supports for an external gallery can be seen halfway up.
On the eastern side, there are the ruinous rubble walls of a rectangular barn that was used for threshing and winnowing. The remains of the barn include a two-storey, three-bay southern elevation, which has surviving openings with semi-circular arched heads, including a lunette. The dressed voussoirs and a square opening for drive machinery connect through the adjoining walls.
