"The windmill is a couris thing,
Completely built by art of man,
To grind the corn for man and beast
That they alike may have a feast"

This is the story of the English Windmill. A gentle, meditative film about some of the surviving examples of those thousands of mills that, one hundred years ago, were at work all over England.

Written and produced by Malcolm Freegard.


Clip taken from A Couris Thing, originally broadcast on BBC Two, 31 March, 1968.
