Horsey Windpump
Horsey Windpump is a drainage mill on the Norfolk Broads, built in 1912 on the base of an older mill to pump water off the surrounding marshes. Struck by lightning and idle for decades, it was restored to working order, and the sails turn once more. Climb to the top for a view across Horsey Mere and the reedy levels, then walk the circular path down to the dunes at Horsey Gap.
