Travel Guide

Boyd's Windmill, also known as Boyd's Wind Grist Mill, is a historic smock mill in Middletown, Rhode Island. John Peterson built the windmill in 1810, and William Boyd purchased it in 1815. It originally had four common sails, but four more were added by the family. The mill is a timber-frame structure, octagonal in shape, and about 30 feet (9.1 m) tall, with a rotating cap powered by eight vanes with canvas sheets.
The mill is located on a public area so the grounds are open. The windmill itself is open to the public on Sunday afternoons in July, August and September.

Staff was very helpful and courteous. The night clerk even brought me a pot of hot tea! Amazing service.
