Kibworth Windmill update, Wednesday 8 December

Kibworth Windmill, 2010

Our latest Kibworth Windmill Update for December.

Work has continued during November and the beginning of December. However, bad weather in the last couple of weeks has hampered work on the upper part of the mill.

The next major job is to fit a new roof, hopefully before Christmas. We are dismantling the old roof, and some repairs undertaken, prior to fitting the new one.

Kibworth Windmill Renovation in progress

Over the last three months a number of visitors have been able to see the millwrights at work.

However, we have no further visits scheduled for this year. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that further visits will be possible until the millwrights have finished the contract.
