North Leverton windmill was built in 1813 by local farmers to mill their grain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/nottingham/content/articles/2009/01/13/north_leverton_windmill_feature.shtml )〕 The mill is located in North Leverton, Nottinghamshire. The mill has three floors and is built to the Lincolnshire style. It has four patent shuttered sails mounted on a cross, an Ogee cap and an eight bladed fantail. There are thee sets of millstones, two of which are wind-driven, and one set driven from an external engine/tractor. In 1884, the mill was extended and gained an extra floor. The windmill has continued to work through all of its life, making it unique.〔 The windmill is entirely maintained by a group of volunteers, and is open to the public every Saturday throughout the year. Admission is free but there is a donation box towards the upkeep of the mill.〔 There are open weekends in the summer with a wide variety of attractions for visitors to see. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Subscription Mill, North Leverton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
