Llancayo Windmill, Monmouthshire, Wales - 26th September 2004

We spotted this derelict windmill from the road and I used the telephoto lens to obtain this rather gloomy picture - it was wet and misty too!

Llancayo Windmill, Monmouthshire, 29th September 2004 - MTC

A fire in 1885 destroyed the sails and machinery of the windmill which was never repaired - this is all the information I have been able to glean about this imposing ruin.

More information on this and other wind and water mills may be found on the excellent  Windmill World site.
