Holgate Windmill York Open Day - Places to Visit North Yorkshire
In 2018 I visit Holgate Windmill that left me in awe. This once derelict windmill on Windmill Rise in Acomb has been carefully restored. It is just a stones throw from York Bunker and is certainly worth a visit on one of their open days. This video gives some history and information pertaining to the windmill. I really recommend going down to have a look, just a couple of quid to get in, not expensive, but check the website for up to date admission.
This is the first video in the North Yorkshire Articles playlist.

Cultural Facilities - Holgate Windmill Preservation Society
Holgate Windmill Preservation Society in York were awarded £43,285 for the final stages of the renovation of the windmill, to restore the sail frames which hold the shutters in place to spill the wind, and to install fencing around the mill to make it safer for visitors to enjoy.
With strong volunteering participation from the beginning, the project has inspired and motivated the local community, with volunteers undertaking practical work as well as fundraising activities at this nationally important heritage building.
The windmill impressed at the Biffa Awards in 2012 and went on to receive the Cultural Facilities award.
