Tips
The windmill isn't located in Pershil. That town is in the Hoeksewaard region. Bosman had his forge there, and the windmills were often stamped with the Bosman-Pershil imprint. This one stands on the beautiful Noordzijdsekade in the Willeskop nature reserve. It's highly recommended, especially when combined with the lookout tower a stone's throw away.
