The house in today’s picture is clearly a former windmill. When it became a residential building, I know not. It looked like a good subject for a picture or two though.
I took a couple of pictures of the house and, while I was doing so, I was observed by a lady looking out from a window in a nearby property who was engaged in a telephone conversation. I smiled at her when I saw her watching, but her face remained resolutely stern and she didn’t return the expression. The first shot I took was with my Nikon F80, a fairly standard looking SLR camera, but I wonder what she thought when I pulled the distinctly old-fashioned-looking Yashicamat 124G TLR from my bag to make the photo below? I did smile at her a second time as I did this, but again to no trace of a similar response. I wonder what was said about me on her phone call that day?

Resolutely stern is better than severe, though! Is the windmill part of the building attached to the foursquare, or are those two, separate residences? I would give anything to know how the old windmill had been structurally partitioned on the inside, for use as a residence! I do love the little satellite dish on the side of the old mill, lol!

I think the two buildings are joined, although I expect the mill is the far older part of the structure.
