With no trees close by the vanes have sustained no visible damage, and the angle-steel structure of the tower looks suitably rusty. It is however missing the vital "Push Rod", but the vanes were spinning with the breeze.
While the windmill is not that close to the road a photograph is easy with minimal trees to interfere with the view.
