     History
    Abandoned windmills are a common sight throughout Portugal. A lot of them can be found near or at the coast. It's obvious why the windmills became abandoned. The only windmills active today are those producing power.

     Future Plans
    Chances are it will sit there, slowly being erroded by the Atlantic winds.
