Pinhole Polder Windmill “Rooie Wip” | 20140816

Pinhole Polder Windmill “Rooie Wip” | 20140816 | 1-memo.com | Pinhole image today of the “Rooie Wip” poldermolen – the “Red Hollow Post” polder mill – used for water drainage (build in 1639) in Hazerswoude, South-Holland.
Camera : Olympus Micro Four Third – Pin hole cap f/128 aperture, 12m.
My grandmother , when young and living with her parents in Hazerswoude , would walk there to this polder mill every Sunday.
Note – my great-great-great grandfather ‘Pieter’ was a water-miller at the nearby town ‘Pijnacker’ in the early 1800s. His first wind mill – the ‘Noorddammolen’ – was demolished after his death when it was replaced by a steam pumping-engine and later finally by an electric pumping-engine.
Just noticed 😉 it was Pieter’s birthday yesterday – born Aug 15, 1768.
