Great submission. Is it a working windmill? |

The mill is located in Blennerville, Co. Kerry. It’s not working now unfortunately. It was renovated some years back and is used as a visitors centre. |

Great shot of the Blennerville Windmill newfile. My grandparents live down the road from that in Annagh (just off the main Dingle Road across from the Annagh Burial Grounds). I do believe it still does function as a windmill, even though there is a visitor centre as well. A minor technicality as they want it to be the oldest functioning windmill in the country. |
