If you’ve ever fancied running your own windmill- now is your chance.

The former windmill overlooking the county town of Llangefni is among the council-owned land currently available for let.

Listed as available to rent for £7,500 a year, Melin y Graig is one of the town’s most famous landmarks, featuring prominently on the badge of the town’s football club as well as nearby Ysgol y Graig primary school.

The listing describes an “opportunity to let a mill with infrastructure to house telecommunications equipment,” offering a three year letting period.

It goes on to describe the three-storey tower as “positioned in a prime area overlooking the administrative centre of Anglesey” and “ideally positioned close to town centre and main road links.”

Thought to have been built in 1829, like many of the island’s windmills it closed during the late 19th Century.

But while it’s not clear for what purpose could be made of the windmill in its current state, it’s understood that the mill was adapted for use as a telecommunications tower in the 1990s with such masts still seen protruding from the roof.

Anglesey Council added that it reserves the right to fix their own communication apparatus to the property.

The anglesey-history.co.uk website lists the windmill as being built “sometime between 1828 and 1833.”,

It goes on to note: “In 1828 Pigot’s commercial directory only lists a watermill in Llangefni whereas the next edition in 1833 mentions the Craig Mill.

“The mill was run by a succession of millers until it closed in 1893.

“The last miller, William Jones, was also the last miller of two other Anglesey mills, thus earning himself the nickname Angau Melinau (Angaubeing the personification of death in early Welsh legends, and melinau meaning “mills”).

“As with most mills, the sails and machinery were eventually removed and only the empty shell was left by the 1930s.

“Towards the end of the 20th Century it had become something of a trouble spot for the youth of the housing estates that had grown up around it.

“In the mid-1990s it was restored, the distinctive cap was placed on it, and it was used to house mobile phone transmitter equipment with a mast on the top.”
