This windmill is situated on Thurne dyke just off the river Thurne, it was used as a drainage mill. Just sailing behind is the norfolk trading wherry Albion. Canon 600D Featured in All Things Photographic, A Place to Start

There is an empty quarter between Norwich and Great Yarmouth. Its a flat Norfolk Broads landscape criss crossed by drainage channels, and studded with the remains of old drainage mills, no longer used with the advent of electric pumps. Most are romantic ruins, but some such as this one at Thurne (just North of Acle) have been restored to their former glory. This is the last of the windmills painted from my trip several years ago. You can find the others in my Redbubble shop. I've painted this in oils on a 10x12 inch board - small enough for the brush marks to be very apparent.
