WINDMILL SKY

Iconic to outback Australia are the old windmills. They stand tall and proud in a vast field. There is the characteristic sound of metal creaking as the blades rotate round and round, ever so slowly as the wind blows...  Invented in America the 1850’s, windmills have been a huge part of Australian history.

The windmill meant people could access water without being anywhere near surface-water sources. With windmills, people could inhabit and develop new areas of country by drilling a bore into an artesian deposit and the wind-powered pump could draw the water up to a reservoir for livestock to access.
