Robertson's Windmill has been a mainstay of the skyline in Colonial Williamsburg for decades. It was used to grind corn and grain. Its design made it possible for one person to move the entire structure to catch the wind by rolling the extended arm noted above.

I love this windmill. So fascinating.
Very ingenious, this wind mill. Your area must have had some Dutch influence in the past.
Now, that's amazing! My dad would LOVE to have that - he has several at their farm, but that one beats all!!! Very cool!
Love visiting and seeing your lovely photos of Williamsburg. I remember the windmill well.
Windmills are always fun to see. It's interesting that one person can operate it.
What an excellent windmill, and I love the sheep too :)
