Maud Foster Windmill
The Maud Foster Windmill, one of the largest operating windmills in England is located on the Maud Foster Drain in Boston, England.
It was built in 1819 to grind corn that was brought in by barge along the drain. It is unusual for only having 5 sails. The windmill was restored in the 1980s and 1990s and still operates today as a working museum.
