The mill is what the Dutch describe as a Weidemolen (English: Meadow mill). It is a small hollow post mill on a roundhouse. The mill is winded by tail vane. The buck and roundhouse are covered in boards. The sails are Common sails. They have a span of 3.85 metres (12 ft 8 in). The sails are carried on a wooden windshaft. The windshaft carries the brake wheel which has 21 cogs. This drives the wallower (9 cogs) at the top of the upright shaft.[1] At the bottom of the upright shaft a centrifugal pump is driven.[2]
