To coincide with the first Sunday walk in August residents visited the Shirley Windmill. We were welcomed by the representatives of the Friends of Shirley Windmill on the day. The volunteers took us to the visitors centre and provided a preliminary presentation to the history of the windmill.
Residents were able to enter the windmill and go up to the top. There are several levels where we were given an insight into the working of the windmill.
The photos show some of the views we saw on the visit, part of the heritage of the Croydon area, past times.
