1 Tall Tales from the Windmill

Rottingdean Windmill, Beacon Hill, Rottingdean, BN2 7LB

Can a Windmill’s sweeps catch fire if they go round too fast?
Do faeries whistle to catch the wind?
And what do Smugglers, a Cricket Match and a Buried Warrior have in common?
Are they fact, fiction or simply Tall Tales!
Set within Rottingdeans iconic Smock Mill, three storytellers explore myth, legend and historical truths in a selection of hand-drawn panoramic Crankie Theatres.
