Lytham’s iconic windmill is set to be turned into a prime 21st century attraction. The Lytham Heritage Group has applied to the Heritage Lottery Fund for the lion’s share of funding for a £1.5 million conversion project.
Thanks to William Hill for his email mentioning the full report in the Lytham and St Annes Express . This describes an initial bid for which the Heritage Group would have ultimately to raise £426,000. If they get the go ahead the Group will hope for public support for match funding and a network of volunteers worth £86,650.

Those who know the mill and its location next to the lifeboat house will wish the project well.
