Lara Eakins of the Tudor History podcast turned me on to the beautiful Pictures of England site. There goes the next, oh, 3 months, as I now have to browse through every…single…picture there.
Anyway, I’m currently making my way through County Buckinghamshire, and I’m struck by all the windmills. I’ve seen been looking at pictures of England for years, and picturing it in my mind (I’eve never been) from other people’s writings, and somehow I missed that there were lots of windmills. I wonder if this is true all across rural England?
I love this picture of the Quainton Windmill, in which it appears to have sprouted a little windmill on its head.
