  The NIAH has an entry on two windmills: The Small Windmill The Great Windmill With the graveyard behind and no big mill, I think this is the Great WIndmill. Windmill, c.1750, on a circular plan, capped with a mansard roof having five spring sails. The tower 49 ft (c.15m ) Restored c.1995. ROOF: Slate mansard roof with five spring sails. WALLS: Nap rendered.OPENINGS: Square headed with rendered reveals; timber sash windows; tongue and grooved doors. INTERIOR: Restored, with cobbled floor and working machinery. Streetview

  The 25" OSI Map has the Small Windmill in ruins, whereas the Great Windmill is disused.

• Niall McAuley said:

  There is an old cable station in Waterville, Streetview, but this isn't it.

• Niall McAuley said:

  The NIAH dates the building at 1858, but does not know when the big ugly wings were added.
