"This is the oldest windmill on Cape Cod and was built in Plymouth in 1680. The windmill was moved to Truro (1770's), and in 1793 to Eastham. It was moved to its present site in 1808. The mill has been restored to good working order and is the last working gristmill on Cape Cod. It is located in Windmill Park near the town center and can be seen in action during the summer months." edit: the stone step just in front of the door is actually a very old millstone.
