Ashton Windmill
Ashton windmill is a tower mill in Chapel Allerton, Somerset, England.[2] It was modernised in 1900 with machinery brought from the demolished Moorlinch mill, and iron hoops around the building being added.[4] It is now preserved, having been given to Bristol City Museum in 1966 and is owned by Sedgemoor District Council, and maintained by volunteers.In 2008 the council applied for listed building planning consent to undertake major restoration work on the windmill, including replacement of the stone steps, installation of hand rails, guard rails and safety bars, alterations to the window shutters and replacement of the sail frames with wood laminate.[5] In 2010 Sedgemoor Council decided it could no longer afford to maintain the windmill and has appealed for an independent group of trustees to take on the responsibility for the building.
