Anyone want a Windmill?

[BroadScot]

Wonder if being in a National Park has added anything to the price tag?

Surely not!    Errrr WHAT! National Park?

No, but "More than a National Park" would increase it's value massively.

This was the original mill which stood on that spot at Horning probably c1920s. I believe that it became a holiday home in the 1930s ..... I don't know how much, if any of the original mill was incorporated in it or not.

or maybe not!

 

The Broads is the only National Park that has seen a fall in house prices over the last five years, down 2%...

From that very same report:

The Broads is the only National Park that has seen a fall in house prices over the last five years, down 2%. Overall, the average price in National Parks rose by 12%.

Phew, Strow, they are ganging up on you!

Fakes never demand the same money as the genuine article

Damn...

 

If only it was a real one, instead of just being a member of the family......

The original was a wooden mill and I believe that what remains uses a proportion of the original structure (this comes from someone who has been in it many times).

[Polly]

That is what I was told too, Andy.

Griff

[Springsong]

That would make me nearly eighty my boy, old but not that old.

Here I am 13 years later where the Southern Comfort moors nowadays.

[Springsong]

At least it would have been with the photo added.

[BroadScot]

Thats brill,will it make my flour?

[Springsong]

I am afraid I don't know Clive. There were so many boats like that around in those days. I have blown up the reg No as as far as I can make out it is either B722 or B723 neither of which come up with anything relative.. It rather looks like a heinz job the lifting roof from a saily grafted on to a generic aft cockpit of the day.

Yare House?

[BroadScot]

That's a Wendy Mill. Just like the Wendy House.  : Wendy says she had one when she was little. A house not a windmill. I think that's were she met Peter Pan.
