allowed access to the sails for making repairs because they could not be easily reached from the ground in larger mills. Frame – Sail design that forms the outline of the sail, usually a meshed wood design that then is covered in cloth. The Mediterranean design is different in that there are several sails on the sail-frame and each supports a draped cloth and there is no wooden frame behind it. Fantail – Orientation device that is attached to the cap, allowing it to rotate to keep the sails in the direction of the wind. Hemlath – Thick wooden sailbar on the side of the frame that keeps the narrower sailbars inside the sail. Sailbar – Elongated piece of wood that forms a sail. Sail cloth – Cloth attached to a sail that collects wind energy; a large sail cloth is used for weak winds and a small sail cloth for strong winds.

It is sometimes said that tower mills fuelled a society that was steadily growing in its need for power by providing a service to other industries as well: The production of pepper and other spices Lumber companies used them for powering sawmills Paper companies used to change wood pulp into paper Other sources argue against this claiming there is no real evidence, specifically, of tower mills doing these things. Interesting facts The world's tallest tower mills can be found in Schiedam, Netherlands with the highest mill being De Noord (The North, corn mill of 1803), 109 ft / 33.5 metres to cap) both in working order. An imitation, De Nolet, was built in 2006 as a "generator mill" producing electricity and named after the local Nolet distilling family the mill belongs to, 140 ft / 42.5 metres to cap). England's tallest tower mill is the nine-storeyed Moulton Windmill in Moulton, Lincolnshire, with a cap height of 97.5 ft / 30 metres. Since 2005 the mill has a new white rotatable cap with windshaft and fantail in place. The stage was erected during 2008 and new sails were fitted on 21 November 2011 to complete the restoration of the mill. Larger mills have been lost such as the Great Yarmouth Southtown mill (120 ft to top
