Dix Windmill information


The Gov. John Adams Dix Windmill, originally constructed on property owned by the Governor of New York John Adams Dix in 1870, is a historic windmill located in Westhampton Beach, New York in the United States. It is a "smock"-style windmill, named after the 8-sided style that resembles the smocks (petticoats) traditionally worn by farmers and millers. The windmill was designed to pump water for agriculture, livestock, and household purposes, rather than for milling corn or wheat or sawing timber.[1]
