INSANE: What is it like to work in nottingham s windmill | Vintage Vibes

One of Nottingham's most recognisable landmarks is Green's Windmill which can be found in the middle of Sneinton. The windmill is so much more than just a tourist destination as it also houses the science centre, a working flour mill, and a thriving community garden for the local community.

The windmill was built in 1807 by a local baker, George Green, and was restored in the early 1980s. It is now run by the Green Windmill Trust charity who took over in 2012 with a view to keeping it open to the public and functional. These days, the windmill has a dedicated team who looks over the day-to-day running of the mill along with volunteers.

Jamie Duff is the Heritage development officer at the windmill and he has been part of the team for ten years. He feels lucky to be able to work in such a varied role.
