An assistant at the Wedelse windmill made an exact replica of this mill on a smaller scale. The mill was used as a fulling mill up to the 16th century. A fulling mill stamped and kneaded woven fabric until it became a sturdy thick fabric. Up until the 16th century, the cloth and linen industry flourished in this region. When the industry went into decline, the mill became a grain mill once again.
