Want to help restore our windmill?

We would like to invite local companies and individuals to take part in our new campaign to raise the money required to restore our windmill.

With our initial Lottery bid being unsuccessful, we are looking for other ways of raising the neccessary funds. Our plan is to break the whole programme of works into smaller, more managebale and financially viable chunks, inviting interested parties to sponsor elements of each project. If seperate bodies sponsored just one item, together we would soon be able to fully pay for the restoration. We are currently working on renovating the cap, fantail and sail frames. More details of the proposal and a brief breakdown of the costs can be found on our cap restoration page.

If you are interested in helping save an important part of Yorks heritage please take time to look through the proposals. A PDF copy of the proposal will be available for download soon. If you would like to discuss sponsorship with the society, please contact Bob Anderton, either by email at andertondesign@btconnect.com or by telephone on 01904 795851.

Alternatively, if you wish to make a donation, please get in touch with Bob, or you could fill out a donation form and send it directly to our treasurer, Peter Graves.

As a mark of thanks for all your support, a permanent display will be housed inside the mill thanking all contributors. So please help us - sponsor a piece of living history and make a difference.
