(Credit: Charity Robey) On Saturday, Feb. 13, a team of 10 people led by a millwright from Saugerties, N.Y. maneuvered an enormous handmade wooden lattice high on a windy hill across a sheet of ice, to install the fourth and final sail on Sylvester Manor’s historic 1810 Dominy windmill. Onlookers in hats and very sensible footwear took pictures and provided moral support. It was a modern-day barn-raising, a community bringing muscle and craftsmanship together to erect something tall and proud that works for all of us.

Island wind power project nears completion: Manor s windmill has all four wings attached

Working on Sylvester Manor’s windmill, as four sails are installed on the 19th century mill, one of the iconic sites of Shelter Island. (Credit: Adam Bundy) The 19th-century windmill at Sylvester Manor Educational Farm is now at full sail all four of the wings of the Island’s most readily identifiable links to its agricultural past were installed this week. Last year, a group of students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in Massachusetts focused their research on designing a modern wind energy system to augment the windmill’s future energy production potential. The windmill, built in 1810 as a gristmill to grind grain into flour, had ceased operating in the mid-1900s, and its driveshaft had rotted. With its interior works otherwise in good condition, it’s now being restored to once again grind grain grown on and off the farm.
