Reseguide

Pakenham Tower Mill, near to Ixworth, Suffolk, Great Britain. Pakenham Mill was built in 1831, Clement Goodrich was the miller in 1846, when he took on an apprentice. The mill came into the ownership of the Bryant family in 1885. A steam engine was used as auxiliary power, in 1947 the mill was nearly tail-winded. The mill was restored in 1950, with a new weatherbeam fitted by Amos Clarke, the Ipswich millwright. At this time the swing-pot neck bearing from Buxhall mill was installed. A second-hand stock from Thurston post mill was fitted at this time and a gallery constructed around the cap. The gallery was based on that at Wendover mill, Buckinghamshire. New sails were also fitted. Further restoration took place in 1961, aided by grants from Suffolk County Council, the Ministry of Works. The work was conditional on the Bryant family continuing to work the mill. The restoration work was carried out by R Thompson & Sons Ltd, millwrights of Alford, Lincolnshire. The copper covered cap was rebuilt and clad in aluminium for maintenance reasons. A new stock and two new sails were made, and the fantail rebuilt. The mill was struck by lightning in June 1971, a stock being split and a sail damaged. The sack chain saved the mill from being burnt down by giving a route for the lightning to earth. When the mill was repaired a lightning conductor was added. The most recent restoration of Pakenham windmill was completed in May 2000. The �60,000 cost of the work was 80% funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The work was carried out by Thompson's of Alford. Pakenham is unusual in having both a working water and windmill, although the windmill isn't producing flour activly like the watermill.

en natt på landet
omgivningen var tråkig, vid landsväg och på landet utan möjlighet att promenera därifrån! rummen låg i trista annex-byggnader medan pub och restaurant var trevligt, mysigt och stämde bra med bilderna
