Regretfully “Elphin Windmill” was badly damaged in January 2025 by Storm Éowyn.
Significant repairs and reconstruction are required to restore our visitor facility to its former glory. As a result, the Visitor Centre is closed for the foreseeable future until the completion of such works has taken place.
A gofundme page “Save Elphin Windmill” has been setup to fund the necessary repairs. The Elphin Windmill Committee would like to thank most sincerely those who have already donated.
Your support is greatly appreciated.
