Avoncroft Museum - part two



As promised, here are some images of the buildings at Avoncroft Museum of Historical Buildings, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. For more details go to this link.

The first two images show the Merchants House, the most iconic building at the museum and one of the earliest exhibits, a building that I have produced in model form for Grand Manner - see this link.







The final three images, show the Windmill. A post windmill with a working sail that on this particular day was open to the public. I spent some considerable time in the main wooden structure talking to one of the volunteers about this buildings and well as seeing the structure being turned into the wind by the use of rope, pulleys and posts.
