The Terpensmole near IJlst is a polder mill of the spinning head type. The mill originally stood near Sneek. The mill is owned by the De Fryske Mole Foundation. The mill was restored between 1981 and 1982 and officially inaugurated by the mayor of Sneek on National Mill Day, May 8, 1982. Here, the mill serves as a reserve drainage system for the polder, with outflow into the Geau (Geeuw). In 2011, after its relocation, it was renamed "Terpensmole."
