Description
Cape Cod - Old Higgins Farm Windmill
Built in 1795 and in use for 105 years, this is a fine example of a smock windmill now moved to Drummer Boy Park in Brewster, Cape Cod, MA. Note the pole attached to a cartwheel, so allowing the sails to be turned to face the prevailing wind. This way the miller should always be able to grind flour for his customers.
