Wrawby Windmill, Post mill in Wrawby, North Lincolnshire, England.
The windmill structure stands on a central post, requiring the entire building to rotate when adjusting the sails to capture wind direction.
Built between 1760 and 1790 for the Elsham Hall estate, the mill operated until the 1940s before falling into disrepair and receiving restoration in 1962.
The Wrawby Windmill Preservation Society maintains this Grade II listed building, offering demonstrations of traditional milling techniques to preserve local heritage.
Visitors can explore the mill during bank holidays from April to August, with additional openings on the last Sunday of June and July.
This North Lincolnshire landmark remains the sole functioning post mill in Northern England, featuring both common and spring sails on its structure.
