Mr W - FILEY

Mr W made contact with us to see if we would be able to undertake a project to assist with his restoration of a windmill in Filey.

After a brief initial phone call Mr W decided the best option was to come to see us at our purpose built workshop in Full Sutton.

Over a cup of tea we had a very positive first meeting and it was apparent Mr W had a clear vision in mind for the end product.

We discussed several options and the best way to reinforce the cover, and also the best way to fit lashing points to the cover to enable a good fixing to the mill, after a few small revisions we were able decide on the final design.

A previous bought cover sadly hadn’t proved up to the job so we went ‘belt and braces’ on the cover with 8 lashing points, and 3 fixing straps the complete circumference of the mill top.

The result was a very robust cover manufactured in 900gsm PVC, complete with 3 no. 50mm straps and a total of 8 lashing points.

The cover is only a temporary fixture until such time as the cap of the mill is ready to be installed.
