Facts and practical information

Halnaker Windmill is a tower mill which stands on Halnaker Hill, northeast of Chichester, Sussex, England. The Mill is reached by a public footpath from the north end of Halnaker, where a track follows the line of Stane Street before turning west to the hilltop. There is no machinery in the brick tower. At one time, you could use it for shelter, but no longer. Fifty feet away, however, is a WWII strongpoint that will shelter you from wind and rain. ()
