Oostmolen in Gistel 2

I want to explain the working of this mill with a series of photos taking inside this mill. This shot shows the tail with stairs going up to the upper part of the mill. The turning wheel in front allows the miller to turn the mill into the wind by means of a chain fixed to the little white pole in the grass. These poles are all around the mill so that they can turn it easily 360 degrees. The 2 angled bracing posts must hold the tail in place while the mill is in operation
