The wind is one of the oldest forms of power. Thorpeness Windmill is a great example of how this natural source of energy has been effectively harnessed.
Thorpeness Windmill is an ideal place to begin discovering Leiston. This wind-driven milling structure comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Set aside time for other attractions like Snape Maltings, RSPB Minsmere, and Dunwich Heath and Beach to fully appreciate what the area has to offer.
