I am placing here information in English about this very interesting windmill (it is really a sawmill).
Records show that before the year 1663 a sawmill was already located on the premises and trade in lumber was already taking place. The old mill with the name "de Ruyter" was located approximately on the same location as the present mill "de Heesterboom". The old "de Ruyter" mill was replaced in 1701 with a wooden octagonal frame type sawmill with the name
"de Valk".
