This derelict windpump is in farmland near Long Line, between Dore and Ringinglow, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It was used to pump water from a well beneath the structure, probably for livestock drinking water or irrigation. Each year the structure gets more dilapidated; there is very little left of it now.
