| “De Hadel”, situated at het Zeilmakerspad of the Zaanse Schans, is a North-Dutch meadow-mill, coming from Midwoud. In 1968 it came to the Zaanse Schans, where it is being used to rinse through the ditches. The mill, with a wingspread of 8 meters, drives a paddle wheel. On it’s original place this little meadow-mill, build in the end of the last century, served as under-draining of a little polder. That was done with a fan-pump. |  |
