Abstract

An industrial archaeological survey and analysis of the Brisbane windmill has uncovered new facts about its design and construction. It is concluded that the main reason for its operational problems was not poor construction or inadequate maintenance but insufficient wind. The palliatives adopted are examined, and tentative reconstructions of the outline and internal layout are made.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
