Maud Foster Windmill I (Boston)

Built in 1829 the Maud Foster Mill in Boston is one of the UK’s tallest and finest working windmills. The mill uses wind power to produce flour on a commercial basis – up to three tonnes per week. It’s unusual since it is situated on a residential road, right in the heart of Boston which is a busy English town. It is unusual as normally you would expect to find these things way out in the country.

Maud Foster Windmill I (Boston) belongs to the following groups:

    There are probably about a hundred left in England now, but a lot of them don’t have sails any more, however this one is still in use, so you can actually by flower from the shop next door. I don’t know how many are still in use but I’d be surprised if it was more than 30.
