We were lucky enough to attend the open day (August 2019), it was the first time in 60 plus years I have been able to go around the Windmill. It was well worth it.

A well preserved windmill at Cat and Fiddle Lane in Dale Abbey. 🐈 This mill dates from 1788 or earlier; the stone roundhouse was added in 1844. Derbyshire is lucky, despite having few surviving windmills or even many remains, to still have one of the finest post mills in the country, known as the 'Cat and Fiddle Windmill' at Dale Abbey, near to Derby. 🎡 A tall post mill mounted on a Midlands type roundhouse, it has suffered many reversals in fortune but despite this, it still serves to remind us of the many post mills which stood in the county. The village of Dale Abbey is about seven miles north-east of Derby, some two miles from Ilkeston. It is well known for the spectacular remains of its Abbey, as well as for its Grade ll listed windmill which stands on the hill top... 🏞️

Historical windmill that can be seen for miles in every direction. Situated at the corner of Ladywood Rd and Cat and Fiddle lane just outside Kirk Hallam on the A6096. Lovely country camera shots can be taken with the windmill in the background, especially on a foggy morning and at evening sunset
