A very big Thank You to Andy, Marion and Siobhan who were excellent hosts during our visit today to the wonderful 18th century windmill at Elphin. Andy is a very well informed and friendly tour guide and the hospitality was second to none! After photographing the site from every possible angle, we enjoyed the banter over tea and scones. For those of you that were unable to make it, ye missed a great morning!
