Ancient rural implements
There are two old implements at the base of Wymondham Mill. One is a horse drawn single furrow plough and the other looks to be a windlass (perhaps to do with turning the mill in days gone by).

View from Wymondham Windmill
Wymondham Windmill dates from the early 19th century and is undergoing restoration. It is possible to go to the upper floors where views like this are obtained. The cap was replaced at the end of August 2017. At the time of my visit the walls and windows were also being restored. See http://wymondhamwindmill.co.uk/2015/12/14/209/
