One of only a few remaining water pumping windmills.

There were over 1,000 working water pumping windmills on the plains here. Most have been replaced by electric pumps. Water windmills are on square towers, adjacent to a stone water cistern.

Windmills for milling grain are on round towers. Most (all ?) have also been replaced by electric motors.
