This area is now part of Sanger, but at one time, you were in the vicinity of Union Hill, which passed into the ages when Lake Ray Roberts was built in the 1980s. Interestingly, Lois Road winds its way to the west and north to virtually nothing, as even the old church there is a residence today.
There is equipment at the base, but it does not appear to be operational. Notably, there's an old well behind the windmill, which seems to be content to spin away in the middle of the road.
