Small courtyard of cottages off Eastgate, probably dating from the early 19th Century. A windmill once stood on the site, hence the name. It ceased use around 1740 and the machinery was moved to Morfa Mill, a water mill on Afon Ystwyth behind Tanybwlch Beach (see Image). The windmill building remained until demolition in 1860. The cottages are grade II listed - see http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=10741, http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=10742,http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=10743, http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=10744 and http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=10745.
