Originally used for grinding corn by the local landlord and now back in full working order, this is the only working windmill in the West of Ireland. The mill was officially opened by Hollywood film star Gabriel Byrne (whose mother hails from the parish of Elphin) in June 1996.  Contact details   Tel  0876312708  Email info THINKING OF SELLING OR RENTING?
